Answer:

3/4 teaspoons of pepper

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 teaspoons : 3 potatoes = x teaspoons : 9 potatoes

(1/4)/3 = x/9

3x = 9 * 1/4

x = 3 * 1/4

x = 3/4

Answer: 3/4 teaspoons of pepper

Since 9 is 3 times the denominator of the first ratio, multiply the numerator of the first ratio by 3 to get the numerator of the second ratio. The amount of pepper is 3/4 teaspoon.

In a game of pool, a 0.4 kg cue ball is traveling at 0.80 m/s when it hits a slower striped ball moving at 0.38 m/s. after the c
LiRa [457]

The magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball is (B) 0.56m/s.

<h3>What is Velocity</h3>
  • The definition of velocity is a vector measurement of the rate and direction of motion.
  • It is a moving body's speed and direction of motion.

How to calculate the magnitude of the final velocity?

The magnitude of the final velocity can be calculated by following the steps:

  • The mass of the cue ball given is 0.4kg.
  • The velocity of the cue ball given is +0.80m/s.
  • The velocity of the striped ball before the collision is +0.38 m/s.
  • The velocity of the striped ball after collision is +0.62m/s.
  • We need to find the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball.

Assuming all pool balls have the same mass: 0.4kg

Let the final velocity of the cue ball be x.

Now, To find the final velocity:

  • Mass of the cue ball × initial velocity of cue ball + Mass of striped ball + initial velocity of striped ball = mass of cue ball × final velocity + mass of striped ball × final velocity of the striped ball

  • (0.40)×(0.80)+(0.4)(0.38) = (0.4)(x)+(0.4)(0.62)
  • 0.32+0.152=0.4x+0.248
  • 0.472=0.4x+0.248
  • 0.472-0.248= 0.4x
  • 0.224/0.4 =x
  • x = 0.56m/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball is (B) 0.56m/s.

The correct question is given below:

In a game of pool, a 0.4 kg cue ball is traveling at +0.80 m/s when it hits a slower striped ball moving at +0.38 m/s. After the collision, the striped ball moves off at +0.62 m/s. What is the magnitude of the final velocity of the cue ball? Assume all pool balls have the same mass.

A. 0.20 m/s

B. 0.56 m/s

C. 1.0 m/s

D. 1.8 m/s

If the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms is N(489,6), what is the probability that the box will contain less
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

0.000064 = 0.0064% probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

N(489,6)

This means that \mu = 489, \sigma = 6

What is the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 466. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{466 - 489}{6}

Z = -3.83

Z = -3.83 has a p-value of 0.000064

0.000064 = 0.0064% probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g.
