In a large backyard, there are 4 times as many shrubs as trees. altogether, there are 40 trees and shrubs. how many trees are in the yard? how many shrubs?

Please mark me brainliest and I hope this helped!

Trees: 8

Shrubs: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 4 times as many shurbs as trees, then in total, we should split it into 5 parts. So we should divide 40 by 5. That gives us 8, so there are 8 trees. Shrubs is 4 times as much, so there are 8 times 4 shrubs which is 32 shrubs.

there are lots of ways.   pick's theorem tells us if the vertices are lattice points the area a is

a = b/2 + i - 1

where b is the number of boundary lattice points and i is the number of interior lattice points.

in the figure i count b=16, i=50 so

a = 8 + 50 - 1 = 57

let's try the shoelace formula.   the area is half the sum of the cross products of the sides.  

a(-2,6)   -2(2)-6(-5) = 26

b(-5,2)   -5(-3) - 2(-2) = 19

c(-2,-3) -2(-3) - (-3)(4) = 18

d(4,-3)   4(3) - (-3)(5) = 27

e(5,3)   5(3) - 3(1) = 12

f(1,3)     1(6) - 3(-2) = 12

a(-2,6)

each of the cross products is twice the area of the triangle with the associated side and one vertex the origin. so the area of abo=26/2=13.

area = (1/2) (26 + 19 +   18 + 27 + 12 + 12) = 57

that checks!

135 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

try 180 times three then divide that number by 4 (sides) to get your answer. im glad to : )
