Answer:

1.8 or 9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

4\frac{1}{2} ÷ 2\frac{1}{2}

Change into improper fractions

\frac{9}{2}÷\frac{5}{2\\}

Flip the second fraction and then multiply

\frac{9}{2}×\frac{2}{5}=\frac{18}{10}

18/10 is 1.8 as a decimal and 9/5 simplified

Answer: 1-4/5 dozens of muffins.

Step-by-step explanation;

Step One. Turn the fractions into decimals to make it easier; 4-1/2 will be 4.5 and 2-1/2 will be 2.5.

Step Two. Apply the rule of three, using the variable x to represent the number of muffins Garnet can make; 2.5/1 = 4.5/x.

Step Three. Solve for x by cross multiplying; x = 1.8. So Garnet can make 1.8 dozens of muffins with 4.5 cups of flour.

Step Four. Convert the decimal into a fraction; 1.8 in a fraction form is 9/5, or 1-4/5.

lora16 [44]

1. (0.5)2=1

2. (-0.2) + (-0.05) = -0.25

3. |-3 + 2.75| = 0.25

4. -(-0.25) = 0.25

5. 2x - 1.75x = 0.25x


So your answers are 3 and 4.

Given the function f(x)= √x+7, find the value of x when f(x)=1
solniwko [45]
F(x) = 1, so we make the entire equation equal 1.

1 = sqrt(x) + 7

To make x by itself subtract 7 from both sides

-6 = sqrt(x)

Square both sides to remove sqrt from x.

36 = x

The value of x is 36

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

4y = -3x - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y1 = -9 x1= -4 m = -3/4

y -(-9) = -3/4(x -(-4)

y + 9 = -3/4(x + 4)

y + 9 = -3/4x -12/4

multiply through by 4

4y + 36 = -3x -12

4y = -3x -12-36

4y = -3x -48 in the form y = mx + c
