-0.125
To get the reciprocal of a fraction, exchange the numerator and the denominator (the top and bottom parts). The reciprocal of a negative fraction is also negative.
The reciprocal of -1/10 is -10, and the negative of -10 is 10 .
-.375=-3/8 So, -8/3 because a negative time a negative equals a positive, and 1 is a positive
The opposite reciprocal of 8 would be -1/8, but the opposite of -8 is just 8.
It would be the negative of the negative reciprocal. And since the negative of a negative is a posivie, it is the positive reciprocal.. For example, if the slope was -3, the other would be 1/3.
The negative reciprocal of zero would be any undefined fraction. 0/x=0 negative reciprocal: -(x/0)= undefined.
Taking the reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) does not affect the positive or negative status of an integer. So the reciprocal of a negative number is negative and the reciprocal of a positive number is positive. The reciprocals will be opposites (positive/negative) just as the original numbers were.
The negative reciprocal of any gradient gives the gradient of the line perpendicular to it. If you had a line of gradient 2, the negative reciprocal would be -1/2 Just change the sign on the number and flip the number/fraction to get the negative reciprocal.
Yes.
Reciprocal 8 = 1 / 8 = 0.125
The reciprocal of any number x is equal to 1/x. In this instance, the reciprocal of -8 is equal to 1/-8.
The cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine function. Now, the reciprocal of a positive number is positive, and the reciprocal of a negative number is negative.
