<span>Look at the definition of multiplicative inverse. If two numbers are multiplicative inverses of each other, then by definition, their product will be equal to 1. And 1 is a positive number. If both numbers being multiplied are positive, then the result is positive. And of both numbers being multiplied are negative, then the result is still positive. But if one number is positive and the other is negative, then the result is negative. So if you want a positive result, then both numbers you're multiplying have to have the same sign. And since we want a result of 1 for multiplicative inverses and since 1 is positive, then the numbers being multiplied have to have the same sign.</span>
6/x= -2/18
Cross multiply. ( Multiply the numerators together ) . ( Multiply the denominators together (.
6*18= - 2*x
108= -2x
Divide by -2 for 108 and -2x
108/-2= -2x/2
x= -54
Answer: x= -54
Answer:
The perimeter is 38.25 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the tra-pezoid is the distance around it.
The length of the bases can be found using the absolute value method.
|RS|=|20-14|=6 units.
|TQ|=|22-8|=14
Recall the distance formula;

We use the distance to find the non parallel sides.
units.
and
units.
The perimeter of the tra-pezoid is
=14+10+6+8.25=38.25
Answer:
The correct answer is 149.00.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part = Percent • Whole
Adding a 65% markup to the original price of 105 is simply multiplying the price by the decimal form of the markup, then adding that to the original price. Next, you would find 20% of your sum by multiplying the sum by 0.20. Then you would find 7.5% of <em>that</em> and add this to the price.
Solve:
105 • 0.65 = 68.25 Find 65% of 105
105 + 68.25 = 173.25 Add the markup to the price
173.25 • 0.20 = 34.65 Find the discount of the new price
173.25 - 34.65 = 138.60 Subtract discount from price
138.60 • 0.075 = 10.395 Find sales tax of new price (Or round to 10.40)
<u>138.60 + 10.395 = </u><u>148.995</u><u> Add sales tax to new price (Or </u><u>149</u><u>)</u>
Because money only goes to the hundredths place, we can either start rounding to that place in the second to last step - rounding 10.395 to 10.40 - or we can round our answer - 148.995 rounds to 149. Either way, we will still get an answer of $149.00.
Hope this helps.
