Step-by-step explanation:

There is no enough information to determine how many portions she will be able to make.

We need to know how many pounds of grapes will she needs to make a particular pounds portions for the snacks.

For example, if she needs 2 pounds of grapes to make 5 pounds portion for the snacks, and she purchase ½ pounds of grapes, we can determine how many pounds of portions for the snacks she will be able to make with this information.

Using a simple ratio

2:5 = ½:x

2/5 = ½/x

Multiplying both sides by x

(2/5)x = 1/2

Multiplying both sides by 5/2

x = (1/2)×(5/2)

x = 5/4

x = 1¼ pounds

Meaning she will be able to make 1¼ pounds of portion for snacks with ½ pounds of grapes.

Mr. Evans is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week.He is paid 1.5 that rate for each hour after that . l

No, Mr.Evans will make under $400. His base pay, 9.20 times the hours he worked at regular pay(40) would equal $368. Now, take those extra 2.25 hours he worked at 1.5 times his base pay of 9.20, which would give you $13.80. Now, multiply 13.80 and 2.25, and you get 31.05. These two amount added, would equal $399.05, leaving Mr. Evans at just under $400 earned that week.

Answer:

x=35.35

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply \frac{x}{10.1} .1 by 10.1 that will cancel out the 10.1s, then since you multiplies one side of the equation by something you have to multiply the other too.  So 3.5*10.1 = 35.35.  Then since the 10.1s canceled out this leaves us with x=35.35.  Let me know if you need any more help.
