Answer :
the first one is c because if you put it at negative 1/8 then it is 0-1/8 or 1/8 away from zero
second one is
the reciprocal is the number that when multiiplied by the number you are trying to find the reciprocal of, you get +1 so the number you have is 2/7 so
2/7 times x=+1
multiply both sdies by 7/2 to clear fraction
x=+7/2
the reciprocal is +7/2 or +3 and 1/2 which is D

Q#1 (look at the picture)
Answer: C
Q#2
a reciprocal number of [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] is equal [tex]\frac{b}{a}[/tex]
therefore
a reciprocal of [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] is equal [tex]\frac{7}{2}=\boxed{3\frac{1}{2}}\to\boxed{D}[/tex]
