What are similarities and differences between the opposite of a non-zero number and the reciprocal of that number?
The answer depends on what you mean by the "opposite" of a number. A reciprocal is one type of opposite: it is the multiplicative opposite.
What is the opposite and the reciprocal of -8584073464?
The opposite is 8584073464 while the reciprocal is -1/8584073464. If you mean the opposite of the reciprocal of -8584073464 then is 1/8584073464.
How can you tell the difference between a graph in which one variable is directly proportional to another and a graph in which two variables vary inversely?
1. You can tell the difference because the proportional one has the same slope while the inversely one has opposite reciprocal slope.
When you divide one fraction and another why do you have to turn it into a reciprocal?
To divide by a fraction, you multiply by its reciprocal. This is related to the facts that (1) division is the opposite of multiplication, and (2) a reciprocal is the multiplicative "opposite" of a number.
What is the property of the reciprocal of the opposite of a number?
The property of the reciprocal of the opposite of a number is: Reciprocals of inverse values are themselves inverse values. i.e. for b = (-1)a , the reciprocal 1/b = (-1) 1/a The negative or positive status of a reciprocal is the same as that of the original number.

What is the opposite and reciprocal of 200?
- 200 would be the opposite of 200 on the number line. 1/200 is the reciprocal of 200.

1. You can tell the difference because the proportional one has the same slope while the inversely one has opposite reciprocal slope.
What is the opposite and reciprocal of the square root of 6?
The reciprocal of the square root of 6 is ±0.4082 (approx). Not sure what is meant by opposite.
Do Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes?
Actually it IS. perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes and parallel lines have the same slope.
What is the opposite of the reciprocal of a perpendicular line?
I suppose you mean what is an opposite reciprocal? At any rate, we should start there. The opposite reciprocal is -(1/x) so let's take the number 5. The opposite reciprocal would be -1/5. If you want two lines to be perpendicular you must take the original slope of the first line and change it to its opposite reciprocal. For example: y=5x A line perpendicular to this line would be y=-1/5x.
