If they both aren't exchanging the cards and making the fractions from their own picked ones, then Jamie will will have 7/10 and Lauren will have 6/12. 
7/10 is a bigger fraction to 6/12

6/12 is 1/2 in simplified form. To check answer- in decimal format, 7/10=0.7 and 1/2 is 0.5. So, we can say for sure that 7/10 is the greatest fraction.

Answer:

  replace recipe quantities:

  1/4 ⇒ 5/8; 1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4; 1 ⇒ 2 1/2; 1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4; 2 ⇒ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given recipe serves 4, so must be multiplied by 10/4 = 5/2 to make it make 10 servings.

The numbers in the recipe (ignoring units or ingredients) are ...

  1/4, 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2

Each of these numbers needs to be multiplied by 5/2 to get the number for the larger recipe.

  1/4 × 5/2 = 5/8

  1/2 × 5/2 = 5/4 = 1 1/4

  1 × 5/2 = 5/2 = 2 1/2

  (1 1/2) × 5/2 = 3/2 × 5/2 = 15/4 = 3 3/4

  2 × 5/2 = 5

Then, to make the larger recipe, rewrite it with the quantities replaced as follows:

  old value ⇒ new value

  1/4 ⇒ 5/8

  1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4

  1 ⇒ 2 1/2

  1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4

  2 ⇒ 5

__

For example, 1 1/2 lbs of fresh tomatoes ⇒ 3 3/4 lbs of fresh tomatoes

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you actually want to create the recipe, you may find it convenient to use a spreadsheet to list quantities, units, and ingredient names. Then you can add a column for the quantities for a different number of servings, and let the spreadsheet figure the new amounts. (A spreadsheet will compute quantities in decimal, so you will need to be familiar with the conversions to fractions--or use metric quantities.)

Find the y-intercept of each exponential function and order the functions from least to greatest y-intercept.
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Keep the exact order that is shown

Step-by-step explanation:

The first exponential already has a point at (1, -2) which means the y-intercept would be less than -2, which is the lowest among the three


The second has a y-int at -2

Third has y-int at 2
