The reciprocal of 5/8 is 8/5 all you have to do is flip it.
so if you are looking for the reciprocal to 2, then it is 1/2 because of the fraction properties
i believe the answer would be A.
in slope-intercept form, it's y = -3/2x - 1
First, subtract to get the difference.
2.85 – 2.78 = 0.07
Next, divide 2.78 by 100
2.78 ÷ 100 = 0.0278
So, 0.0278 is 1%. Divide 0.07 by 0.0278 to get the answer.
0.07 ÷ 0.0278 ≈ 2.518
2.518 ≈2.5
Therefore, the percentage increase is approximately 2.5% (that's the answer).
Hope this helps!
