Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

64 ivy stems.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A wedding planner uses 72 ivy stems for 18 centerpieces.

When she arrives at the venue, she realizes she will only need 16 centerpieces.

Question asked:

How many ivy stems should she use so that the ratio of ivy stems to centerpieces stays the same?

Solution:

As wedding planner uses 72 ivy stems for 18 centerpieces:

Ratio of ivy stems to centerpieces = (72)/(18)

As she realizes that she needs only 16 centerpieces:

Let ivy stems should be used to stays the ratio same = x

Now, to do the ratio same:-

Old ratio = (72)/(18)

New ratio = (x)/(16)

To do the ratio same:-

(72)/(18)=(x)/(16) \n

By cross multiplication:

18x=72*16\n18x=1152

Dividing both sides by 18

x=64

Therefore, 64 ivy stems she should use so that the ratio of ivy stems to centerpieces stays the same.

2. The line BC in the figure above is the ___ of the cylinder.A. slant height
B. axis
C. altitude
D. vertex

Answers

Answer:

BC denotes the axis of the cylinder in the given figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an oblique cylinder. It is three dimensional shape having sides not perpendicular to the base. it means it is leaning toward one side left or right as shown in figure below.

We have to determine what BC denotes.

Height is always perpendicular to the base so the given line BC is the axis of the cylinder . When there is a slant to the cylinder axis is also not perpendicular to the base.

Thus, BC denotes the axis of the cylinder in the given figure.

The line BC in the figure above is the AXIS of the cylinder.

Axis of the cylinder is the line formed by the centers of the bases of a cylinder.

It mentions that angle 1 is congruent to angle 2. They have the same angle measure. This allows us to replace angle 1 with angle 2 (because they're effectively the same thing).

We can say
(angle 1) + (angle 3) = 90 
(angle 2) + (angle 3) = 90
notice the replacement in bold

The second equation is an algebraic way of saying "angle 2 and angle 3 are complementary"
