Bonnie planted a garden in her backyard. Both the garden and the backyard are right triangles. The garden is proportional to the

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.

A gift shop sells 140 wind chimes per month at $90 each. The owners estimate that for each $5 increase in price, they will sell
guapka [62]

Answer: $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Te new price will be 90 + 5x, if the price increases "x" times

The number of wind chimes sold per month will become 140 - 7x

\begin{aligned}&\text {Revenue, } \mathrm{R}(\mathrm{x})=(90+5 \mathrm{x})(140-7 \mathrm{x}) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=5(140-7 x)-7(90+5 x) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=700-35 x-630-35 x \\&R^{\prime}(x)=70-70 x=0 \\&70 x=70 \\&x=1\end{aligned}

Therefore, if the price becomes (90 + 5(1)) = $95 per wind chime, then the revenue will be maximum

NemiM [27]
For the first equation, the answer is C) completing the square.
For the second equation, the answer is B) zero product property.

For the first equation, we can easily complete the square by finding half of b and squaring it; then we can take the square root of both sides and solve the equation.

For the second equation, since it is already factored, we use the zero product property to solve it.
