To find an equivalent, divide 4 acres by .6 acres= 6.666... then divide the cost of 4 acres ($520 by 6.666....= $78) So it would cost 78 dollars to plant .6 acres of corn.
Answer:
14cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle (A) is 1/2bh where;
b is the base of the triangle
h is the height of the triangle
Given the base = 7cm and height = 4cm,
Substituting the given values into the formula of area of a triangle we have;
A = 1/2×7×4
A = 14cm²
Therefore the area of the triangle is 14cm²
To determine this, we need to set up fractional proportions.
First, put 12.5% (what we're looking for) over 100%, which is the total (256).
12.5/100 should be your first fraction.
Now, put x over 256, x being 12.5% of 256.
x/256 should be your second fraction.
Now put these two fractions as an equation.
x/256 = 12.5/100
This may be where things get tricky if you don't pay attention.
Cross multiply the top number (numerator) of x/256 with the bottom number (denominator) of 12.5/100.
You should end up with 100x.
Now, cross multiply the top number of 12.5/100 with the bottom number of x/256.
You should end up with 3200.
Now our equation is:
100x = 3200
Divide both sides by 100 to get x.
100x/100 = x
3200/100 = 32
x = 32 is now your simplified equation.
Your final answer is:
32 is 12.5% of 256.
Also, since 12.5% is 1/8 of 100%, we can test our answer.
Multiply 32 by 8 to get 8/8 (100%).
32 x 8 = 256.
Your answer is 32.
I hope this helps!
$14.50 because your equation would be 4+1.50(7)=$14.50.
