A non zero real number could be written as a/1.

When this gets reversed to be 1/a, it is the multiplicative inverse.

Answer: Multiplicative Inverse

Step-by-step explanation:

A multiplicative inverse is the same thing as a reciprocal.

a written as a fraction is: a/1

The reciprocal of a/1 is 1/a.

So all in all, the answer is multiplicative inverse!

Hope this helped!

Bonnie is making a dipping sauce. She mixes 150 milliliters of soy sauce with 100 milliliters of vinegar. How much soy sauce doe

natali 33 [55]

First step

You must stablish a relation

150 ml sauce/100 ml vinegar

If 100 ml vinegar_______150ml sauce then 11 ml vinegar ____x ml sauce

Second step

You must resolve x from the equation

X= (11ml vinegar*150 ml soya)/(100 ml vinegar)= 16.5 ml sauce, it means that it will be 16,5 ml sauce by every 11 ml of vinegar

Y-1=5/6(x-4) in standard form

scoray [572]

   y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x - 4)
   y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x) - ⁵/₆(4)
   y - 1 = ⁵/₆x - 3¹/₃
   + 1    + 1
             y = ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
      ⁻⁵/₆x + y = ⁵/₆x - ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
   -6(⁻⁵/₆x + y) = -6(-2¹/₃)
-6(⁻⁵/₆x) - 6(y) = 14
         5x - 6y = 14

What is the sum of all values of m that satisfy 2m (squared) -16m+8=0?

vodomira [7]

<h2>Steps:</h2>

So for this, we will be completing the square to solve for m. Firstly, subtract 8 on both sides:

$2m^2-16m=-8$

Next, divide both sides by 2:

$m^2-8m=-4$

Next, we want to make the left side of the equation a perfect square. To find the constant of this perfect square, divide the m coefficient by 2, then square the quotient. In this case:

-8 ÷ 2 = -4, (-4)² = 16

Add 16 to both sides of the equation:

$m^2-8m+16=12$
