Find the sum of the reciprocals of two real numbers given that these numbers have a sum of 150 and a product of 40?

1/x + 1/y = (y+x)/xy
But y + x = sum = 150, and xy = product = 40
So sum of reciprocals = 150/40 = 3.75

Two numbers whose product is 1 are called?
Two numbers with a product of 1 are called reciprocals. If you have a number and want to find the reciprocal of it, simply divide 1 by the number. For example, the reciprocal of 5 is 1/5, and the reciprocal of 700 is 1/700.
How do you find the other number when the one number is given with the LCM and the GCF?
The product of the original numbers is equal to the product of the GCF and LCM. Divide the product of the LCM and GCF by the one number. The answer will be the other.

Is the following statement always true If you have a product of two numbers and you find the product of the opposites of the numbers you get the same result.?
If by "opposite" you mean "additive inverse", then yes.
The sum of two numbers is 10 and their product is 20 find the sum of the reciprocal of the number?
Suppose the numbers are x and y Then the sum of their reciprocals is 1/x + 1/y = y/xy + x/xy = (y+x)/xy = 10/20 = 1/2

The sum of two numbers is 28 and their product is 7 find the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers?
x + y = 28 x*y = 7 x=7/y replacing X in eq 1 7/y+y=28 y^2 - 28y + 7 = 0 using above solutions find the reciprocal and sum -- Dhruv
