First of all, you know that a fraction is smaller than 1 if the top number is smaller than the bottom. It works both ways, meaning that if the top number is larger than the bottom number, the fraction is greater than 1.
So, for example, a fraction less than 1 can be expressed as
(x-1)/x
because the top number is smaller than the bottom number.
The reciprocal can be found by flipping the top and the bottom, so the reciprocal is
x/(x-1)
x is always greater than x-1, so in the reciprocal, the top number will be larger than the bottom number. That means it will always be greater than 1.
Hope this helps!

Selecting this function: F(x)= x^4-x^2+3
Graph using these selected points:
Rises to the left and rises to the right
x y
-1 3
0 3
1 3
2 15
3 75
After assigning values for x and y, plot the graph:
See attached picture for the graph.
We can now conclude that for the given graph, the equation of F(x) is equal to x^4-x^2+3 which is letter
D. F(x)= x^4-x^2+3
Answer: x = 108
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're given a diagram and
we're asked to find the value of x that would make m ll n.
We can see that the angles that are marked in the diagram
are same-side interior angles since they lie on the same side
of the transversal and they lie on the interior of lines m and n.
Therefore, in order for line m to be parallel to line n,
these angles must be supplementary.
In other words, they must add to 180 degrees.
So we can setup the equation x + 72 = 180.
Subtracting 72 from both sides gives us x = 108.
So the value of x that would make line m ll n is 108.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle is a 30-60-90 right triangle.
The ratio of the lengths of the sides is:
The order of the sides in the ratio above is
short leg : long leg : hypotenuse
The long leg is sqrt(3) times the length of the short leg.
The hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.
Pretty simple, really - all you have to do us divide 509 by 14 before you're left with an answer of <span>36.35. Now, the number '36' is closer to 0 than 100, so we'll round down instead of up, therefore the number of floors to the building is 36! </span>
