Answer:

12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Steve= 4 hours

Steve and Andrea= 3 hours

Applying the combined work formula

1/A+1/B= 1/T

1/4+1/B= 1/3

solve for B

B+4/4B= 1/3

cross multiply

3(B+4)= 4B

3B+12= 4B

12= 4B-3B

12= B

Hence Andrea will spend 12 hours alone

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.
