Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An estimate is usually a guess, but I somehow think that's not what you want.
She starts with 4 2/3 cups of batter. When she divides it into two, one of the batters has 2 1/4 cups. That's the one she puts blueberries in.
The other batter is the one you are interested in. How big is it?
Estimate: One
The estimated size would be 4 2/3 - 2 1/3 = 2 1/3 which is an estimate. It is just taking the closest number to use so you don't have to grab your calculator.
Actual Size: Two
4 2/3 - 2 1/4 is the size of the second batter. Since 2/3 is greater than 1/4 you need only subtract the whole numbers and then the fractions.
<em><u>Whole number subtraction:</u></em> 4 - 2 = 2
<em><u>Fraction subtraction:</u></em> 2/3 - 1/4
Find the Lowest common multiple between 3 and 4: It is 12. 3 and 4 are prime to each other. They have nothing in common.
- 2/3 to 12s: (2*4)/(3*4) = 8 / 12
- 1/4 to 12s: (1 *3) / (4*3) = 3/12
- 8/12 - 3/12 = 5/12
So the actual size of the batter containing the walnuts is 2 5/12
The decay factor would be 1 minus the percent of decrease:
1-0.12 = 0.88
Answer:
Y to the 9th power
Step-by-step explanation:
the amnwer is 1.6. all you do is 8 dived by 5
The rate of change in this pattern is 2:1 comparing the change in 'y' to the change in 'x'.. this means that if you go form 33 to 51 ( an increase of 18), then the the increase from 16 to ? will be 9. Therefore, ? = 16 + 9 or 25
? = 25
