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

you are riding a bicycle which has tires with a 25-inch diameter at a steady 15-miles per hour, what is the angular velocity of
motikmotik

Answer:

The angular velocity is 6.72 π radians per second

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the angular velocity is ω = \frac{v}{r} , where v is the linear velocity and r is the radius of the circle

The unit of the angular velocity is radians per second

∵ The diameter of the tire is 25 inches

∵ The linear velocity is 15 miles per hour

- We must change the mile to inch and the hour to seconds

∵ 1 mile = 63360 inches

∵ 1 hour = 3600 second

∴ 15 miles/hour = 15 ×  \frac{63360}{3600}

∴ 15 miles/hour = 264 inches per second

Now let us find the angular velocity

∵ ω = \frac{v}{r}

∵ v = 264 in./sec.

∵ d = 25 in.

- The radius is one-half the diameter

∴ r = \frac{1}{2} × 25 = 12.5 in.

- Substitute the values of v and r in the formula above to find ω

∴ ω = \frac{264}{12.5}

∴ ω =  21.12 rad./sec.

- Divide it by π to give the answer in terms of π

∴ ω = 6.72 π radians per second

The angular velocity is 6.72 π radians per second

PLS HELP! I NEED TO FIND THE SURFACE AREA OF THIS CYLINDER!
Contact [7]

Exact Surface Area = 378pi

Approximate Surface Area = 1186.92

The approximate surface area uses pi = 3.14

The units are cm^2 or "square cm".

=========================================================

Work Shown:

SA = surface area of cylinder

SA = 2*pi*r^2 + 2*pi*r*h

SA = 2*pi*7^2 + 2*pi*7*20

SA = 2*pi*49 + 2*pi*140

SA = 2*49*pi + 2*140*pi

SA = 98pi + 280pi

SA = 378pi ..... exact surface area

SA = 378*3.14

SA = 1186.92 ..... approximate surface area

----------

Side note: The diameter 14 cuts in half to get the radius r = 7
