Answer:


(25)/(10x-1)

Explanation:

The multiplicative inverse of "a" is "
(1)/(a) "

a ×
(1)/(a) = 1

~~~~~~~~~~~


(1)/(5) ( 2x -
(1)/(5) ) =
(2)/(5) x -
(1)/(25)

1 ÷ (
(2)/(5) x -
(1)/(25) ) = 1 ÷ (
(10x)/(25) -
(1)/(25) ) = 1 ÷ (
(10x - 1)/(25) ) =
(25)/(10x-1)

The multiplicative inverse of the product is
(25)/(10x-1)

Answer:

You multiply 5 by 1/5 to get 1. So with 2x, you multiply by 1/(2x) to get 1. That's about all you know, since we only know that x is positive.

Hope it helps
