The opposite of the fraction one third

lozanna [386]

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>

Joey and Armando live on the same st as the park. The park is 9/10 mile from Joey's home. Joey leaves home and walks to Armando'

AleksandrR [38]

Let's start by assuming Armando's house is between Joey's and the park.

Let $x$ be the distance Joey walked to Armando's house.

<span>The park is 9/10 mile from Joey's home. Joey leaves home and walks to Armando's home. Then Joey and Armando walk 3/5 mile to the park.

</span> $\dfrac{9}{10} = x + \dfrac{3}{5}$

$x = \dfrac{9}{10} - \dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{9}{10} -\dfrac{6}{10} = \dfrac{3}{10}$

That's probably the answer they're looking for. But what if the park is between Joey and Armando's houses or Joey is between the park and Armando? (The latter isn't really possible with the given distances.)

Let $a, b, c$ be the distances between three collinear points like we have here. Our equation is really a few equations in one, something like

$\pm a \pm b = \pm c$

Let's get rid of the plus/minuses. Squaring,

$a^2 + b^2\pm 2ab = c^2$

$\pm 2ab = c^2-a^2-b^2$

$4a^2b^2 = (c^2-a^2-b^2)^2$

For us, that's a quadratic equation for $c^2$

$4(9/10)^2(3/5)^2= (c^2-(9/10)^2 - (3/5)^2)^2$

I'll skip right to the solutions,

$c^2=\dfrac{9}{100} \textrm{ or } c^2=\dfrac{9}{4}$

$c=\dfrac{3}{10} \textrm{ or } c=\dfrac{3}{2}$

We could have gotten the 3/2 just by adding 9/10+3/5 but this was more fun.

What is the first ordered pair and the second ordered pair?

Delvig [45]

When x=-5, y=(1/5)*(-5)-1=-2, so the first order pair is (-5,-2)
when y=-1, -1=(1/5)x-1, (1/5)x=0, x=0, so the second ordered pair is (0, -1)
