12 grapes cost 90 $how many can bought in 40$

Mathematics

Answer:

5 grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a proportion.

12 grapes is to 90$ as x grapes is to 40$

12/90 = x/40

90x = 12 * 40

9x = 12 * 4

9x = 48

x = 5.33

Since you cannot buy 1/3 of a grape, you need to round down to the nearest whole number.

Answer: 5 grapes

Let x = the amount of grapes that can be bought for 0.40.


Note: By 90 I assume you mean 90 cents. The same for 40.


12/x = 0.90/0.40


0.90x = 12(0.40)


0.90x = 4.80


x = 4.80 ÷ 0.90


x = 5.33333


We can round the decimal to the ones place to get 5 grapes.

kherson [118]
Since there are 12 months in there year and there have already been 3 months there are 9 left

we need to multiply 4.25 by 9 and then add the first 15 inchess

4.25 times 9 = 38.25+15 = 53.25

Florida will recieve 53.25 inches of rain

I hope I've helped!

ABCD is a trapezoid.<br> What is the area of trapezoid?
lana [24]
Let h represent the height of the trapezoid, the perpendicular distance between AB and DC. Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (1/2)(AB + DC)·h
We are given a relationship between AB and DC, so we can write
  Area = (1/2)(AB + AB/4)·h = (5/8)AB·h

The given dimensions let us determine the area of ∆BCE to be
  Area ∆BCE = (1/2)(5 cm)(12 cm) = 30 cm²

The total area of the trapezoid is also the sum of the areas ...
  Area = Area ∆BCE + Area ∆ABE + Area ∆DCE
Since AE = 1/3(AD), the perpendicular distance from E to AB will be h/3. The areas of the two smaller triangles can be computed as
  Area ∆ABE = (1/2)(AB)·h/3 = (1/6)AB·h
  Area ∆DCE = (1/2)(DC)·(2/3)h = (1/2)(AB/4)·(2/3)h = (1/12)AB·h

Putting all of the above into the equation for the total area of the trapezoid, we have
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = 30 cm² + (1/6)AB·h + (1/12)AB·h
  (5/8 -1/6 -1/12)AB·h = 30 cm²
  AB·h = (30 cm²)/(3/8) = 80 cm²

Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = (5/8)·80 cm² = 50 cm²
