Answer: First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of pieces of candy = 252

Number of ounces jar is it = 14

We need to find the number of pieces of candy should be there in the jar per ounce.

So, it becomes

Number of pieces of candy per ounce is given by

\dfrac{\text{Number of pieces of candy}}{\text{Quantity of jar}}\\\\=\dfrac{252}{14}\\\\=18

Hence, there are 18 pieces of candy per ounce in the jar.

Therefore, First option is correct.

"Per" essentially means "divided by." To find pieces per ounce, divide pieces by ounces.


(252 pieces)/(14 ounces) = (252/14) pieces/ounce = 18 pieces/ounce

Use the position function s(t) = −16t² + 400, which gives the height (in feet) of an object that has fallen for t seconds from a
skad [1K]

Answer:

160m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The object can hit the ground when t = a; meaning that s(a) = s(t) = 0

So, 0 = -16a² + 400

16a² = 400

a² = 25

a = √25

a = 5 (positive 5 only because that's the only physical solution)

The instantaneous velocity is

v(a) = lim(t->a) [s(t) - s(a)]/[t-a)

Where s(t) = -16t² + 400

and s(a) = -16a² + 400

v(a) = Lim(t->a) [-16t² + 400 + 16a² - 400]/(t-a)

v(a) = Lim(t->a) (-16t² + 16a²)/(t-a)

v(a) = lim (t->a) -16(t² - a²)(t-a)

v(a) = -16lim t->a (t²-a²)(t-a)

v(a) = -16lim t->a (t-a)(t+a)/(t-a)

v(a) = -16lim t->a (t+a)

But a = t

So, we have

v(a) = -16lim t->a 2a

v(a) = -32lim t->a (a)

v(a) = -32 * 5

v(a) = -160

Velocity = 160m/s

Mario builds a triangular table to fit in the corner of his rectangular bedroom. Is it possible to construct more than one table
Viefleur [7K]

Answer 1 with Explanation

Obtained from the question, Mario builds a triangular table to fit in a corner of the bedroom with the construction measure of 45,90 and 45 degrees which will be possible. In order to construct any physical object, proper tool are needed for accuracy of the object to built more than one of the similar table. With the help of proper instruments and measurement Mario can easily make a triangular table for his room's corner.

Answer 2 with Explanation

As Mario built the triangular table for the corner to fit his bedroom corner. He make use of the special instrument and tool for the measurement. Indeed, it is possible to construct more than one table with the angles 45,45,90 as each of them will be similar in shape but with different values of x, hence it will differ in sizes in terms of length. The length will differ as per the requirement of Mario's needs.

Frans filing cabinet is 6 feet tall 1 1/3 feet wide and 3 feet deep. She plans to paint all sides except the bottom of the cabin
aleksley [76]
Well you are look at a 3d image here 
so if area is length times width then we need to find the area of every side of the cabinet and add it up     
11/3 on the calculator is 3.66666667 sooooo....
top: 3 x 11/3 = 11
side 1: 3 x 6 = 18
side 2: 3 x 6 = 18 
front: 6 x 11/3 = 22
back: 6 x 11/3 = 22
so we have all of our measurements:)
now we just add them up together. 
11+18+18+22+22= 91!!
so Frans would have to paint 91 square inches of that cabinet:) hope i helped

The table gives the probabilities that new cars of different models will have brake failure. The car model that is least likely
melamori03 [73]
<span>All the information we have are the probabilities, and what we need is the lowest number: so let's choose the smallest probability among the numbers: 0.0065%, B 0.0037%,C 0.0108%,D 0.0029%, E 0.0145%. The smallest of the numbers is 0.0029% -it starts with two 00s and the number that follows, 2, is smaller than all there others - so the smallest probability is in option D - and the model would be the corresponding model (but we're missing some information here) </span>

∠A and ∠B are complementary angles of right triangle ABC, cos A = 0.83, and cos B = 0.55. What is sin A + sin B?
sergiy2304 [10]
As the angles are complementary sin A = cos B and  sin B = cos A

so sin A + sin B =  0.55 + 0.83 =  1.38
