Answer:
Yes, Fiona is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
WHen the pythagorean theorem is applied to the side lengths (2^2 + 4^2 = c^2), the result for c^2 is 20. The correct answer would be sqrt.20. But Fiona is also correct becuase sqrt of 20 can be simplified to sqrt.4 * sqrt.5; which equals 2*sqrt.5

Answer: 5</h3>
Explanation:
This is something you could do by trial and error.
The visible numbers are 1,2,3,4,6 which multiply to 144.
Another approach is to notice that 5 is not a factor of 144, so it must be the hidden value not part of the items multiplied.
Every other number 1,2,3,4,6 is a factor of 144.
1*144 = 144
2*72 = 144
3*48 = 144
4*36 = 144
6*24 = 144
let's bear in mind that B is the midpoint and thus it cuts a segment into two equal halves.

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.
