Consider 2 1/2 divided by 1/4 (c) find the quotient for the real-world problem in part (a). show your work or explain your reasoning.

um, we can't do the x candies divided by y children because 1/4 children would be a problem

we can do this tho

you hae 2 and 1/2 cups of cupcake mix

each cupcake requires 1/4 cup of mix

how many cupcakes can you make?

one way is

cupsyouhave/cupsneededpercupcake=numberofcupcakes

2 and 1/2 divided by 1/4=number of cupcakes

remember that

first convert 2 and 1/2 to fraction

2 and 1/2=2+1/2=4/2+1/2=5/2

so

answer is 10

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

24/56=hx^7
