First change the mixed fraction into a improper fraction

8 5/6= 53

53/6 is your improper fraction

then flip it (reciprocal)

6/53 is your answer

hope this helps

First make it an improper fraction which would be 53/6.
Then you just flip it
So the reciprocal would be 6/53
I hope this helped!

12a. Shan has 32 books, including 12 books by his favorite author. Express as a decimal the number of books by his favorite auth
LenaWriter [7]

12a. First expressing as a fraction, Shan has 12/32 books from his favorite author, so:

12/32=3/8=0.375 books from his favorite author

12b. Because the decimal 0.375 isn't a periodical decimal, so it would be a terminating decimal.

The equation of a line is y=-2x+1. What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the first line and passes through (2,2)?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form is y=-2x+6.

The equation in standard form is 2x+y=6.

The equation in point-slope form is y-2=-2(x-2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines will have the same slope and different y-intercept.

Anyways the slope of y=-2x+1 is -2.

So the equation of our line we are looking for is -2.

So we know our equation is in the form y=-2x+b.

We must inf b using y=-2x+b with (x,y)=(2,2).

y=-2x  +b  with (x,y)=(2,2)

2=-2(2)+b

2=-4+b

Add 4 on both sides:

2+4=b

Simplify:

6=b

The equation is y=-2x+6.

Now it didn't say what form it wanted.

There are some forms I can give you like standard and point-slope form.

There is also general form but it is not too much different from standard form.

Standard form is ax+by=c where a,b, and c are integers if possible.

Point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

So let's go for standard form (ax+by=c) first:

y=-2x+6

add 2x on both sides:

2x+y=6

This is standard form because it is in the form

ax+by=c.

Ok we know point (2,2) is on our line and we also know we have slope,m, is -2.

Point-slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=-2(x-2)

A builder needs to cover 10 square yards of floor with tile. red tile costs $60 per square yard, and white tole costs $40 per sq
dsp73

Answer:40 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Floor area A=10 square yards

Red tile costs \$ 60 per square yards

White tile costs \$40 per square yards

Total money spent=\$480 on tiles

Suppose red tiles cover an area of x square yards

So, we can write

60\times x+40\times (10-x)=480\\60x+400-40x=480\\20x=80\\x=40\ \text{square yards}

Red tiles cover an area of 40 square yards
