Answer:
x^2+x
--------
x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
x 1
------ ÷ --------
x-1 x+1
Copy dot flip
x x+ 1
------ * --------
x-1 1
x(x+1)
-------
x-1
x^2+x
--------
x-1
First of all, you know that a fraction is smaller than 1 if the top number is smaller than the bottom. It works both ways, meaning that if the top number is larger than the bottom number, the fraction is greater than 1.
So, for example, a fraction less than 1 can be expressed as
(x-1)/x
because the top number is smaller than the bottom number.
The reciprocal can be found by flipping the top and the bottom, so the reciprocal is
x/(x-1)
x is always greater than x-1, so in the reciprocal, the top number will be larger than the bottom number. That means it will always be greater than 1.
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
I think it is:
0.5/(0.5+2.5) = 0.5/3 = 1/6
Answer:
$144
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3BH
Base area B = 1/2 * 6 * 4
Base area B = 12 ft²
Height H = 4ft
Volume of the pyramid = 12 * 4
Volume of the pyramid = 48ft³
SInce 1 ft³ = $3
48ft³ = x
Cross multiply
x = 3 * 48
x = 144
Hence the cost of the sign is $144
