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

backyard. The garden has dimensions of 6, 8 and 10 yards. What is the area of Bonnie's backyard if its hypotenuse is 30 yards?

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.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

xy = k    

where k is the constant of variation.

We can also express the relationship between x and y as:

y =      

where k is the constant of variation.

Since k is constant, we can find k given any point by multiplying the x-coordinate by the y-coordinate. For example, if y varies inversely as x, and x = 5 when y = 2, then the constant of variation is k = xy = 5(2) = 10. Thus, the equation describing this inverse variation is xy = 10 or y = .

Example 1: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 6 when x = , write an equation describing this inverse variation.

k = (6) = 8  

xy = 8 or y =  

Example 2: If y varies inversely as x, and the constant of variation is k = , what is y when x = 10?

xy =  

10y =  

y = × = × =  

k is constant. Thus, given any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) which satisfy the inverse variation, x1y1 = k and x2y2 = k. Consequently, x1y1 = x2y2 for any two points that satisfy the inverse variation.

Example 3: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 10 when x = 6, then what is y when x = 15?

x1y1 = x2y2  

6(10) = 15y  

60 = 15y  

y = 4  

Thus, when x = 6, y = 4.



2nd answer choice


constant of variation is xy. XY=23. If X=7 then Y=23/7.

A survey questioned 4,000 community members about how a certain parcel of land should be used (for
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Using it's concept, it is found that the sample proportion for this population is of 0.4.

  • The estimate of the <em>sample proportion for a population</em> is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the size of the sample</u>.

In this problem:

  • 1,599 of those surveyed responded in favor of the park.
  • The sample size is of 4,000.

Hence:

p = \frac{1599}{4000} = 0.4

The sample proportion for this population is of 0.4.
