The opposite of the fraction one third would be negative one third. To be opposite, they must have differing signs. One number should be positive and the other number should be negative. It is different from reciprocal. To be a reciprocal, <span>one number should be the flipped fraction, or upside down version, of the other number.</span>
Part A: c for cost. c=0.31m+0.5
0.31m is the cost per minute. 0.5 is cost per call.
Part B: 0.31m+0.5=5.15 to solve we must rearrange.
subtract 0.5 from each side giving us 0.31m=4.85
divide by 0.31 giving us m=15.65
So 55% is really 55/100
You take 100 - 55 to find how much Mr. Williams drove
100 - 55 = 45
So Mr. Williams drove 45/100 of the miles
Simplified is 9/20 of the miles
