Answer:

Ivy = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4

Required

Determine the amount of sweet Ivy gets when Dennis = 42

We have:

Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4 and

Dennis = 42

Substitute 42 for Dennis in Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4

42 : Ivy = 7 : 4

Convert to fraction

\frac{42}{Ivy} = \frac{7}{4}

Cross Multiply:

Ivy * 7 = 42 * 4

Divide through by 7

\frac{Ivy * 7}{7} = \frac{42 * 4}{7}

Ivy = \frac{42 * 4}{7}

Ivy = 6* 4

Ivy = 24

A team pays $50 to reserve a banquet table. The players on the team pay
Margaret [11]

Answer:

6 players

Step-by-step explanation

Since the team has to pay $50 to reserve a table, you need to subtract this fixed cost from $104. Then you divide the total variable cost, $54, by what each player has to pay, $9, to find how many players sit at the team table.

If Andrew were to rest, he would not be moving (walking).  During such a period, the beginning distance would be the same as the ending distance.

In this graph there are two such time intervals:  BC and DE.  Notice how the graph is 'flat' on each; this 'flat' graph indicates a speed of zero.

If ef bisects angle ceb,angle cef=7x+31 and angle feb=10x-3
Nastasia [14]

Given : Angle  < CEB is bisected by EF.

< CEF = 7x +31.

< FEB = 10x-3.

We need to find the values of x and measure of < FEB, < CEF  and < CEB.

Solution: Angle  < CEB is bisected into two angles < FEB and < CEF.

Therefore,   < FEB = < CEF.

Substituting the values of < FEB and < CEF, we get

10x -3 = 7x +31

Adding 3 on both sides, we get

10x -3+3 = 7x +31+3.

10x = 7x + 34

Subtracting 7x from both sides, we get

10x-7x = 7x-7x +34.

3x = 34.

Dividing both sides by 3, we get

x= 11.33.

Plugging value of x=11.33 in < CEF = 7x +31.

We get

< CEF = 7(11.33) +31 =  79.33+31 = 110.33.

< FEB  = < CEF =  110.33 approximately

< CEB = < FEB +  < CEF  = 110.33 +110.33 = 220.66 approximately
