Let x represent the worth of the professional basketball player's autograph a year ago. Since his autograph's worth increased by 40% now, $364 is 1.40x.
364 = 1.40x
Solving for x gives x = 260.
Thus, the autograph of the basketball player was worth only $260 last year.
Answer: 36 beans
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a proportion
For every 100 beans, 8 are damaged
8/100
For every 450 brand, x are damaged
x/450
Set the expressions equal to each other
8/100=x/450
100x=3600
Divide by 100 on both sides
x=36
So, out of 450 beans, 36 should be damaged

A) area = length x width = 12 x 6 = 72 sq.cm
B) area = 1/2x base x height = 1/2 x 3 x 6 = 9 sq.cm
C) same as B= 9 sq. Cm
D) subtract area of both triangles from area of rectangle:
72 - 9 -9 = 54 sq. Cm
