the amount of grazing land available for each cow varies inversely with the
number of cows. when there are 10 cows, each cows has 2 acres available.
how many acres are available for each cow when there are 50 cows?

0.4 acres are available for 50 cows.

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is given that:

Number of cows is inversely proportional to amount of land.

[Inversely proportional means that when one quantity is increased, other is decreased respectively]

Now the scenario is:

    COWS                     ACRES

       10                            2

       50                           X

As they are inversely proportional so for finding X the equation will be:

10/50=X/2

(10/50)*2 =X

20/50 = X

0.4 = X

So there would be 0.4 acres available for each cow.

step-by-step explanation:

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
