Answer:

In the Garden Club the cost will be a fixed fee of $25 and $10 for each rosebush, so if he buys X rosebushes, the total cost will be:

C1(X) = $25 + $10*X

While in the local nursery there is no initial cost, and each rosebush costs $15, so if he buys X rosebushes, the total cost will be:

C2(X) = $15*X

Now, let's find the value of X where C1 and C2 are equal, this is:

$25 + $10*X = $15*X

$25 = $15*X - $10*X = $5*X

X = 25/5 = 5

This means that if he buys 5 rosebushes, he will pay the same amount in both places.

If he buys less than 5 rosebushes, he will pay less in the local nursery (as it has a bigger slope, but no initial fee)

If he buys more than 5 rosebushes, he will pay less in the Garden club (because it has a smaller slope)

What is the surface area of this figure?
disa [49]

Answer:

72 sq. mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Breaking this down, we have 2 right triangles with sides of 3, 4, and 5 miles, and 3 rectangles with dimensions 3 x 5, 4 x 5, and 5 x 5 miles. Remember that the area of a triangle is 1/2 x b x h , where b and h are the triangle's base and height. The base and height of the triangles at the bases of the figure are 3 and 4, so each triangle has an area of 1/2 x 3 x 4 = 1/2 x 12 = 6 sq. mi, or 6 + 6 = 12 sq. mi together.

Onto the rectangles, we can find their area by multiplying their length by their width. Since the width of these rectangles is the same for all three - 5 mi - we can make our lives a little easier and just "glue" the lengths together, giving us a longer rectangle with a length of 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 mi. Multiplying the two, we find the area of the rectangles to be 5 x 12 = 60 sq. mi.

Adding this area to the triangle's area gives us a total area of 12 + 60 = 72 sq. mi.
