At the beginning of a baking session, there were 2.26 kilograms of flour in the bag. By the end of the baking session, there was 0.98 kilogram of flour in the bag. What is the percent of decrease in the amount of flour? Round the percent to the nearest tenth if necessary?

The answer is not 32 or 43.4.

56.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate percent decrease, you first subtract the original number with the final number.

2.26 - 0.98 = 1.28

Then, you divide your answer by the original number.

1.28/2.26 = 0.56637168141

Finally, you multiply your answer by 100 and round as necessary.

0.56637168141 x 100 = 56.637168141

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,

the answer is 2/54
