Given:
The expression is .
To find:
The shows the correct way to use the rule ""multiply by the reciprocal"" for the given expression.
Solution:
According to the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", if a,b,c,d are four number, then
We have,
It can be written as
Using the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", we get
Therefore, the correct option is D.
Answer: The second choice is answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>The first line (Blue One)</h3> (Slope is -1 and intercepts y at -3)
(Slope is 2, to find y-intercept. Substitute x = 0 then we get -8) (For x-intercept, it's 4. Just substitute y=0 to get x-intercept.)
Because there are choices, it's easy to notice.
The first one, x = -4 and almost -5 which is not right. (x is around 1 almost 2.)
The second one, x = 1 and almost 2 is right.
The third one, x = -1 and almost -2 is not right (The intersection isn't even at -1 or any negative number for x-axis.)
The fourth one, just like the first one... x = 4 almost 5
<h3>Or solve the equations.</h3>Substitute y=2x-8 in y=-x-3
Look at the value of x then find the answer that matches the value of x.
Now for y, substitute x = 5/3 in y = -x-3 (or in 2x-8 if you want.)
So the answer is the second choice.
