Answer

$R_{2}=321\Omega$

Work Step by Step

Given $\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}$ $R=90\Omega, R_{2}=?, R_{1}=125\Omega$ $\frac{1}{90}=\frac{1}{125}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}$ $\frac{1}{R_{2}}=\frac{1}{90}-\frac{1}{125}$ Therefore, $R_{2}=321\Omega$ How to use the calculator: $90,*,x^{-1},-,125,*,x^{-1},=,x^{-1},=.$
