Definition of additive inverse.- If two numbers are added together and the sum is zero, they are the additive inverse of each other.
<span>......................................... IF A + B = 0 , they are the additive inverse of each other.

<span>Multiplicative Inverse.- If two numbers are multiplied together and the product is one. They are the multiplicative inverse of each other, also called reciprocal. </span>
<span>......................................... A.B = 1 , they are the multiplicative inverse of each other.

Answer:
-6,0 & -3,0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answers:
- Pizza Uno = $5.25
- Pizza Duo = $5.60
Those are the costs for a whole small pizza.
==========================================================
Explanation:
Let
- x = cost of whole small pizza from Pizza Uno
- y = cost of whole small pizza from Pizza Duo
x and y are some dollar amount, so they cannot be negative numbers. It also doesn't make sense to have them be 0 either. So we'll make them positive.
2/3 of x is equal to 3.50 as the first sentence mentions. This forms the equation (2/3)*x = 3.50
Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 to isolate x
(2/3)*x = 3.50
(3/2)*(2/3)*x = (3/2)*3.50
x = 5.25
Pizza Uno charges $5.25 for a whole small pizza.
----------------------------
Pizza Duo charges $4.20 for 3/4 of a small pizza, meaning the equation we need to solve is
(3/4)y = 4.20
We'll use the same idea as the last equation to get...
(3/4)y = 4.20
(4/3)*(3/4)y = (4/3)*4.20
y = 5.60
Pizza Duo charges $5.60 for a whole small pizza.
Pizza Uno is the better deal (assuming both pizzas taste the same or you don't have a preference for either). You would save $5.60 - $5.25 = $0.35 = 35 cents.
Answer:
y to 0.78y is a decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
y by itself can also be written as 1y, and 0.78y is less than 1, thus y to 0.78y is a decrease.
9 years because if you do 4700 * 1.03= 4831 now do that 9 times you get 6,132.43
