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.

Anna saves 3 dollars for every 10 dollars she earns.Patrick saves 5 dollars for every 20 dollars he earns.Do the two save money
NNADVOKAT [17]
The two do not save money at the same rate, because if you make common denominators of 20, Anna saves 6 dollars for every 20, while Patrick only saves 5 dollars for every twenty earned. So, Anna ends up saving more than Patrick.

solong [7]

Answer:

2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change over the interval −2≤x≤2 is:

(f(2) − f(-2)) / (2 − -2)

From the table, we see that f(2) = 14 and f(-2) = 4.

(14 − 4) / (2 − -2)

10 / 4
