Answer:

The person weighing 150 lb on Earth will weight 132.5 lb on Venus.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of object on Venus varies directly with its weight on the Earth.

w_v\propto w_e..(1)

\frac{w_v}{w_e}=k=constant

w_v= Weight on Venus

w_e= Weight on Earth

If the weight of person on Earth =w_e=120 lb

If the weight of that person on Venus=w_v=106 lb

And,the weight of another person on Earth =w_e'=150 lb

The weight of another person on Venus=w_v'=?

\frac{w_v}{w_e}=\frac{w_v'}{w_e'} (From 1)

w_v'=\frac{w_v\times w_e'}{w_e}=\frac{106 lb\times 150 lb}{120 lb}

w_v'=132.5 lb

The person weighing 150 lb on Earth will weight 132.5 lb on Venus.

Which graph represents the solution set of the system of inequalities?
Novay_Z [31]
Answer:
(see image)
bottom right image

Explanation:
First try the origin (0,0) to rule out two of the graphs. 
3y ≥ x - 9 
3(0) ≥ (0) - 9 
3 ≥ - 9  yes 
3x + y > - 3 
3(0) + (0) > - 3
3 > - 3 yes 
so the origin should be in the shaded area of the graph, which rules out the top right and bottom left graphs. 
Now try a coordinate that is in the shaded area of one of the remaining graphs, but not in the other one. If it works, the graph is the one that has that point in the shaded region, and vice versa. 
Try point (4, 2)
3y ≥ x - 9 
3(2) ≥ (4) - 9
6 ≥  - 5 yes
3x + y > - 3 
3(4) + (2) > - 3
12 + 2 > - 3
14 > - 3 yes
So the graph is the bottom right one since (4, 2) is included in that shaded region.
