Answer:
A bottle holds 24 ounces of water. It has x ounces of water in it.
What does 24 - x represent in this situation?
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.
Well, A linear relationship has to be a straight line and a proportional relationship has to go through the origin! Hope that's a good hint!
