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.

What linear function represents the line given by the point slope equation y+7= 2/3(x+6)?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The graph of the line in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y+7=\frac{2}{3}(x+6)

This is the equation of a line into point slope form

The slope is m=\frac{2}{3}

The line pass through the point (-6,-7)

To graph the line find the y-intercept

Remember that

The y-intercept of the line is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

so

For x=0

y+7=\frac{2}{3}(0+6)

y+7=\frac{2}{3}(6)

y+7=4

y=4-7=-3

The y-intercept is the point (0,-3)

with the point (-6,-7) and (0,-3) plot the line

see the attached figure

Restless Leg Syndrome and Fibromyalgia
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.1833.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>F</em> = a person with fibromyalgia

<em>R</em> = a person having restless leg syndrome

The information provided is as follows:

P (R | F) = 0.33

P (R | F') = 0.03

P (F) = 0.02

Consider the tree diagram attached below.

Compute the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia as follows:

P(F|R)=\frac{P(R|F)P(F)}{P(R|F)P(F)+P(R|F')P(F')}\\\\=\frac{(0.33\times 0.02)}{(0.33\times 0.02)+(0.03\times 0.98)}\\\\=0.183333\\\\\approx 0.1833

Thus, the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.1833.
