Let's solve the fill-in-the-blanks step by step. ### Step 1: Zero has a reciprocal. - **Answer**: Zero does not have a reciprocal. The reciprocal of a number \( x \) is defined as \( \frac{1}{x} \). Since division by zero is undefined, zero has no reciprocal. ### Step 2: The numbers ___ and ___ are their own reciprocals. - **Answer**: The numbers \( 1 \) and \( -1 \) are their own reciprocals. - For \( 1 \): The reciprocal is \( \frac{1}{1} = 1 \). ...
