The numbers -1/5 and -5 are 'negative reciprocals.' True or False?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maslowich3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative reciprocal of -1/5 would be 5, and the negative reciprocal of -5 is 1/5. A way to double-check is all negative reciprocals add to -1.

-1/5 + -5= -5 1/5

Hope this helps and you understand negative reciprocals more for future problems ahead.

My ones digit is twice the hundreds digit
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The hundreds digit is twice as large as the ones digit. 3 doubled is 6, 6 doubled is 12, and 9 doubled is 18. Since 6 is the only option that is one digit, the hundreds digit must be 6 and the ones digit must be 3. The tens digit is five less than the hundreds digit.

An ac unit uses 3500 watts or power. If it runs for 10 hours each day and the utility company charges $0.13 per kWh, how much do
Helga [31]

Cost = (3500 W)·(1 kw/1000 W)·(10 hrs/day)·(30 day/month)·($0.13/kw-hr)

Cost = (3500·1·10·30·0.13 / 1000)·(W·kW·hr·da·$ / W·da·month·kw·hr)

Cost = <em> 136.50  $/month</em>

"From a quantum perspective, if you observed yourself in a particular new future that was different from your past, expected that reality to occur, and then emotionally embraced the outcome, you'd be-for a moment living in that future reality, & you would be conditioning your body to believe it was in that future in the present moment."

If \: x + y + z = 0 \: then \: show \: that \: {x}^{3} + {y}^{3 } + {z}^{3} =3xy<br>​
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Given

x+y+z=0

⟹x+y=−z

Cubing on both sides

(x+y) 3 =(−z) 3

⟹x 3 +y 3 +3x 2y+3xy 2 =−z 3

⟹x 3 +y 3 +3xy(x+y)=−z 3

⟹x 3+y 3+3xy(−z)=−z 3

⟹x 3 +y 3−3xyz=−z 3

⟹x 3 +y 3 +z 3 =3xyz

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope it is helpful.....
