<span>Shortest side = x, Longest Side = 4x-1, third side = 18 Equation is x + (4x-1) + 18 = 42 so 5x-1 = 42-18=24 and 5x=25 so x = 5, longest side = 4(5)-1=19, third side=18 Add all 3 (5+19+18) to get 42</span>

The force of gravity on Earth is 6 times greater than on the moon. As a result, objects weigh 6 times as much on Earth as they d
DochEvi [55]

Answer: The instrument weigh 204 ounces on Earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Instrument weighed on the moon = 34 pounds

As we know that

The force of gravity on Earth is 6 times greater than on the moon.

So, the weight of instrument on the earth is 6 times the weight on the moon.

Mathematically, it is expressed as

6\times 34\\\\=204\ ounces

Hence, the instrument weigh 204 ounces on Earth.

What is the reason for Statement 2 of the two-column proof?
torisob [31]

We have been given that PQ bisects \angle RPS. In the second statement of the given two-column proof, the statement is \angle RPQ\cong\angle QPS.

This implies that the two angles formed by bisection of angle \angle RPS by the line PQ are equal. We know that the reason for this is simple. It is the definition of bisection of an angle that the two smaller angles formed will be equal to each other.

Therefore, the reason for statement 2 of the given two column proof is c) Definition of bisect
