To find the reciprocal of a fraction, you just need to "flip" it. To check your work, you multiply the fraction and the reciprocal to get 1.
the reciprocal if 2/3 is 3/2
The answer is B
Let the cost of 1 notebook be x and the cost of 1 binder be y.
4 notebooks and 3 binders would cost 23.5
Therefore, 4x + 3y = 23.5 (1)
7 notebooks and 6 binders would cost 44.5
Therefore, 7x + 6y = 44.5 (2)
Multiply the first equation by 2.
8x + 6y = 47 (3)
(3) - (2) gives
x = 2.5
Substitute the value of x in (1), we get,
4(2.5) + 3y = 23.5
10 + 3y = 23.5
3y = 23.5 - 10
3y = 13.5
y = 13.5/3
y = 4.5
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is:
5x + 3y = 5(2.5) + 3(4.5)
= 12.5 + 13.5
= 26
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is $26.
Hey there!
63 = 13 + 2P subtract 13 from both sides
50 = 2P divide both sides by 2
25 = P
So the cost of one pass = $25
Hope this helps!
First break= 1/2
second break = 1/2 of half= 1/4
third break = half of 1/4 = 1/8
forth break = 1/2 of 1/8 = 1/16
fifth break = 1/2 of 1/16 =1/32
fraction painted = 1 -1/32 =31/32
portion painted = 150*31/32 = 145.3125 ft^2
