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.

You want to have $25,000 for a down payment on a house 6 years from now. if you can earn 6.5 percent, compounded annually, on yo
STatiana [176]
Use compound interest formula:
Future value, F 
25000=P(1+i)^n
where
P=present value to be found
i=annual interest rate = 0.065
n=number of years = 6
so
25000=P(1.065)^6
=>
P=(25000/1.065^6)=$17133.353

Mary throws her Grandma’s favorite crystal dish out the second floor window, which is 6 meters from the ground. She is really up
wlad13 [49]

we know that

acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s^2

so, we get

a(t)=9.8

and acceleration will always be constant

we know that

integral of acceleration is velocity

so, we can integrate both sides

\int \:a\left(t\right)dt=\int \:9.8dt

v(t)=9.8t+C

we are given

v(0)=35m/s

we can use it and find C

v(0)=9.8*0+C

35=9.8*0+C

C=35

now, we can plug it back

v(t)=9.8t+35

we know that

integral of velocity is height

we can integrate it again

\int \:v\left(t\right)dt=\int \:\left(9.8t+35\right)dt

s(t)=\int \:\left(9.8t+35\right)dt

s(t)=4.9t^2+35t+C

now, we have

s(0)=6

we can use it and find C

s(0)=4.9(0)^2+35(0)+C

6=4.9(0)^2+35(0)+C

now, we can plug back C

C=6

and we get

s(t)=4.9t^2+35t+6.............Answer

What is the distance, to the nearest hundredth, from (6, 5) to (−3, −8)?
Olin [163]

Answer:

15.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula:

So the distance formula for two given points is

Distance= sqrt((x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2 ) =sqrt((-3-6)^2 +(-8-5)^2 )

=sqrt((-9)^2 +(-13)^2 )

=sqrt(81+169)

=sqrt(250)

=15.81

Hope this helped

I need this done by tonight!
ratelena [41]

Answer:

the answer is (x,y) = (6,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first solve the equation for 2y

you should've gotten:

2y = -6 + 3x

5x - 2y = 18

2) substitute the value of 2y into the equation

5x - 2y = 18

so, 5x -(-6 + 3x) = 18

3) now solve 5x -(-6 + 3x) = 18

4) from that solving that equation, u should've gotten x = 6

5) now plug in 6 for x in the other equation, solve for y

( • stands for multiplication if u didn't know, we use this in higher levels of math so multiplication symbols and x variables aren't confused)

5 • 6 - 2y = 18

6) after solving for y in the previous equation, u should've gotten y = 6

7) now we know that x = 6 and y = 6, however it is always important to check if ur answer is correct by plugging in the x value y values u ended up with into the original system of equations.

checking ur work would look something like this:

2(6) = -6 + 3(6)

5(6) - 2(6) = 18

hope this helps <3
