Given:

The expression is \dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}.

To find:

The shows the correct way to use the rule ""multiply by the reciprocal"" for the given expression.

Solution:

According to the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", if a,b,c,d are four number, then

\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}

We have,

\dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}

It can be written as

\dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}

Using the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", we get

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{7}{1}\times \dfrac{8}{5}

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{7\times 8}{1\times 5}

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{56}{5}

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

K(8, 6) and J(-4, -3)

Distance between 2 points

=  \sqrt{(x1 - x2)^{2}  +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2} }

Thus using the formula above,

distance between points J and K

=  \sqrt{ {[8- (-4)]}^{2}  +  {[6- (-3)]}^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{ {12}^{2}  +  {9}^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{225}  \\  = 15 \: units

Since the graph of the given functions is a straight line, the graph belongs to a linear function, as all linear functions have their graphs as a straight line. For a non-linear function the graph is not a straight line. 

For a relation (non-function), the line passes through same value of x for more than one points. 

Hence the correct answer is "Linear Function"
