A wedding planner uses 72 ivy stems for 18 centerpieces when she arrives at the venue she realizes she will only need 16 centerp

beks73 [17]

Answer:

64 ivy stems

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use rule of three:

Firstly we had 72 ivy stems to use in 18 centerpieces, and know we have 16 centerpieces and want to know how many ivy stems we need to use, so:

18 centerpieces -> 72 ivy stems

16 centerpieces -> X ivy stems

18/16 = 72/X

X = 16*72/18 = 64

He needs to use now 64 ivy stems to maintain the ratio.

Point a is at (-7,-7) and m is at (-6,-1) what are the coordinates of point b

AlekseyPX

Answer:

The coordinates of point b are (-5,5).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Point a is at (-7,-7) and m is at (-6,-1).

So, to find the coordinates of point b.

Let a (-7,-7) be $(x_{1},y_{1})$ , m (-6,-1) and b $(x_{2} ,y_{2})$ .

Now, putting the formula to get the coordinates:

$m=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2} , \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$

⇒ $(-6,-1)=\frac{-7+x_{2}}{2} , \frac{-7+y_{2}}{2}$

So, here we will make two equations to find the value of $x_{2} andy_{2}$ :

$-6=\frac{-7+x_{2}}{2}$

multiplying both sides by 2

⇒ $-12=-7+x_{2}$

⇒ $-5=x_{2}$

And, now same method for getting the value of $y_{2}$ .

$-1=\frac{-7+y_{2}}{2}$

multiplying both sides by 2

⇒ $-2=-7+y_{2}$

⇒ $5=y_{2}$ .

The value of $(x_{2} ,y_{2})$ = $(-5,5)$ .

Therefore, the coordinates of point b are (-5,5).
