9 inches
a^2=b^2+c^2
a=41 inches
b=40 inches
The reciprocal would be 9/7 because a reciprocal is when you flip a fraction and put the denominator as the numerator and vice versa.
The best part of this problem is that it has one unknown variable in the form of "x" and a single equation. So getting to the desired solution becomes very easy.
The equation given in the question is
10 - 5x = 20
- 5x = 20 - 10
- 5x = 10
- x = 10/5
- x = 2
Multiplying both sides with -1 we get
x = -2
So the value of x is -2. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
Answer:
a, -b
Step-by-step explanation:
When x is a, the function becomes
as you see, a-a is 0, and as your whole function is multiplied by this, it makes it 0.
As you see -b+b is 0, and once again, this would make the whole function 0.
