You can find the area of Bonnue's backyard by comparing the hypotenuse of the garden to the hypotenuse of the back yard.  If the hypotenuse of the garden is 10 (with the side lengths being 6, 8 and 10 - the longest is always the hypotenuse) and the hypotenuse of the back yard is 30, this is a scale factor of 3 (3 times longer).

This means the other two sides would also be 3 times longer.

6 yards x 3 = 18
8 yards x 3 = 24

To find the area using these dimensions, you will use the formula for finding the area of a triangle.

A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2 x 18 x 24
A = 216 square yards

The area of the backyard is 216 square yards.

Nathan needs to order some new supplies for the restaurant where he works. The restaurant needs at least 571 forks. There are cu
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The inequality representing  s, the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy is

s ≥ 21

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the restaurant needs at least 571 forks, i.e., if n represents the number of forks the restaurant needs, then

n ≥ 571

Also from the question, there are currently 361 forks. If y represents the number of forks the restaurant needs to buy, then

y ≥ 571 - 361

y ≥ 210

Also, each set on sale contains 10 forks. if s represents the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy, then

s ≥ 210/10

s ≥ 21

Hence, the inequality representing  s, the number of sets of forks Nathan should buy is

s ≥ 21
