There may be more than one way in which to answer this question. I will assume that the "equation" is a linear one: f(x) = mx + b.
Then (16/3) = m(1) + b
This is one equation in two unknowns, so it does not have a unique solution. Was there more to this problem than you have shared?
If we assume that the y-intercept (b) is zero, then y = mx, and
16/3 = 1m, so that m = 16/3, and so y = (16/3)x.
Answer:
It is -26/19.
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplicative inverse is always the recipricol of that number. When the two numbers are multiplied, you should always get 1.
Answer:
10 2/3 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a proportion.
8 gal is to 6 pots as x gal is to 8 pots
8/6 = x/8
6x = 64
x = 64/6
x = 10 4/6
x = 10 2/3
Answer: 10 2/3 gallons
