Find the multiplicative inverse of 2/3 * - 5/7​

Mathematics
1 answer:
boyakko [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

-\frac{21}{10}   is the required multiplicative inverse.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all simplify the given expression.

\frac{2}{3}\cdot \frac{-5}{7}=-\frac{2\cdot \:5}{3\cdot \:7}=-\frac{10}{21}

Multiplicative inverse of any number when multiplied gives 1.

The multiplicative inverse of  -\frac{10}{21}  is -\frac{21}{10}  because:

-\frac{10}{21}\times -\frac{21}{10}=1

Best Regards!

A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is
mamaluj [8]

Answer: The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 3-point questions.

Let y represent the number of 5-point questions.

The maths test consists of 24 questions. This means that

x + y = 24

Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 and the test is worth 100 points. This means that

3x + 5y = 100 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 24 - y into equation 1, it becomes

3(24 - y) + 5y = 100

72 - 3y + 5y = 100

- 3y + 5y = 100 - 72

2y = 28

y = 28/2 = 14

Substituting y = 14 into x = 24 - y , it becomes

x = 24 - 14 = 10

Simultaneous equations 5x+y=28 x+y=2
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

<h2>( \frac{13}{2}  \:,  -  \frac{9}{2} )</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 28

x + y = 8

Solve the equation for y by moving 'x' to R.H.S and changing its sign

5x + y = 28

y = 2 - x

Substitute the given value of y into the equation 5x + y = 28

5x + 2 - x = 28

Solve the equation for x

Collect like terms

4x + 2 = 28

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

4x = 28 - 2

Subtract the numbers

4x  = 26

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

\frac{4x}{4}  =  \frac{26}{4}

Calculate

x =  \frac{26}{4}

Reduce the numbers with 2

x =  \frac{13}{2}

Now, substitute the given value of x into the equation y = 2 - x

y = 2 -  \frac{13}{2}

Solve the equation for y

y =  -  \frac{9}{2}

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair ( x , y )

<h2>(x \: y) = ( \frac{13}{2} , \:  -  \frac{9}{2} )</h2>

-------------------------------------------------------------

Let's check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equation:

plug the value of x and y in both equation

5 \times  \frac{13}{2}  -  \frac{9}{2}  = 28

\frac{13}{2}  -  \frac{9}{2}  = 2

Simplify the equalities

28 = 28

2 = 2

Since , all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system.

(x  \:, y \: ) = ( \frac{13}{2}  \: , -  \frac{9}{2})

Hope this helps....

Best regards!!
