1/6.43 +2/3.56 +1/8.51 use reciprocal table. Correct answer only

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 1/6.43 +2/3.56 +1/8.51, If 'a' is a number, the reciprocal of such number is 1/a. According to the question, the reciprocal of 6.43, 3.56 and 8.51 are  1/6.43 and 1/3.56 and 1/8.51 respectively.

1/6.43 = 0.1555

2/3.56 = 2 * 1/3.56

= 2 * 0.2809

= 0.5618

1/8.51 = 0.1175

Taking the sum of the reciprocals;

1/6.43 +2/3.56 +1/8.51 = 0.1555 + 0.5618 + 0.1175

1/6.43 +2/3.56 +1/8.51 = 0.8348

Hence, the sum of 1/6.43, 2/3.56 and 1/8.51 is 0.8348

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
