One coastal cholla cactus can house the nest of the cactus wren containing two adults and up to five young. Six cholla cacti are counted in a study area. What is the maximum number of wrens that could nest in the area? Write and bubble in your answer on the grid provided.

a. she will receive a refund of $278.

step-by-step explanation:

okay..i will pick 8!

look at the picture.

1.

ef : ab = 2 : 3

gf : cb = 2 : 3

gh : cd = 2 : 3

he : da = 2 : 3

2.

∠a ≅ ∠e

∠b ≅ ∠f

∠c ≅ ∠g

∠d ≅ ∠h

3.

use pythagorean theorem:

the length of the abcd trapezoid sides:

|ab| = 3 cm

|bc| = 10 cm

|cd| = 3(3) cm = 9 cm

|da| = 8 cm

the perimeter of abcd = 3 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 30 cm

the ratio of perimeters of the tarapezoids is equal 2 : 3.

substitute:

      cross multiply

      divide both sides by 3

the answer is 64 cm
