The converse would be If x² = 100 then x = -10
So essentially if the conditional statement is p → q then the converse is q → p (In essence, the converse of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion.)
Given:
- The product of two numbers is (-9/16).
- One of the numbers is (-4/15)
To find: The other number.
Answer:
Let's assume the unknown number to be 'x'.
(-4/15) × x = (-9/16)
× = (-9/16) ÷ (-4/15)
When we divide a fraction by another fraction, the divisor will be taken in its reciprocal form.
x = (-9/16) × (-15/4)
x = 135/64
Therefore, the other number is 135/64.
Hope it helps. :)

x +y =42
x= y+10
Substitute: (y+10) + y =42
Combine y: 2y +10=42
Solve for y: y= 16
