Answer:

<u>64 ivy stems</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

A wedding planner uses 72 ivy stems for 18 centerpieces.

for only need 16 centerpieces ⇒ she will use x  ivy stems

Using the ratio and the proportional

ivy stems : centerpieces

    72       :         18

     x        :          16

Solve for x

∴ x = 16 * 72/18 = 64 ivy stems

<u>So, she should us 64 ivy stems</u>

Answer:

The equation of a line that passes through the point (-1,5) and has a slope of -7 will be:

  • y = -7x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given

  • The point (-1, 5)
  • Slope m = -7

substituting m = -7 and the point (-1, 5) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

5 = -7(-1) + b

5 = 7+b

b = 5-7

b = -2

Thus, the y-intercept is: b = -2

now substituting b = -2 and m = -7 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

y = -7x+(-2)

y = -7x-2

Therefore, the equation of a line that passes through the point (-1,5) and has a slope of -7 will be:

  • y = -7x-2

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

420 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Q. Benjamin is riding a unicycle. The tire of his unicycle has a circumference of 2.8 m, and the tire revolves 1.5 times per second. What is the distance Benjamin travels in 100 seconds?

<u>Given</u>:

Circumference of circular tire = 2.8 meters

Tire revolves per second = 1.5 times

<u>Question asked:</u>

What is the distance Benjamin travels in 100 seconds?

<u>Solution:</u>

Circumference of circular tire means distance covered by the unicycle's tire when it revolves 1 time that is 2.8 meters.

<em><u>Now, by unitary method:</u></em>

In 1 second, tire revolves = 1.5 times

In 100 seconds, tire revolves =  1.5 \times 100

                                                = 150 times

Distance covered by the tire when it revolves 1 time = 2.8 m

Distance covered by the tire when it revolves 150 times = 2.8 \times 150

                                                                                             = 420 meters

Therefore, Benjamin travels 420 meters in 100 seconds.
