It will weigh 79 pounds on mars 
Mariulka [41]3 years ago

We have been given that the weight of an object on the mars varies directly as the weight of the object on earth.  

Let y be weight of an object on Mars and x be weight of an object on Earth.

\\
y=kx

We have been given that the weight of an object on Mars is 34 pounds and weight of the same object on Earth is 90 pounds.

Putting the given values in equation we get

\\
34=k(90)\\
\\
k=\frac{34}{90}=\frac{17}{45}

Therefore, our equation now becomes

\\
y= \frac{17}{45}x

Now we have been given that the weight of an object on Earth is 135 pounds and we have to find the weight of the same object on Mars,

We have been given that \\
x=135

Putting the given values in our equation we get

\\
y= \frac{17}{45}(135)=\frac{17\cdot 135}{45}=17\cdot 3 = 51

Therefore weight of the object on Mars will be 51 pounds.

Which of the following is the correct slope-intercept form of the equation -4x + 2y = 14? y = 4x + 14 y = -4x + 14 y = 2x + 7 y
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form equation of a straight line is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept.

Comparing the given equations with the slope intercept form equation,

2) y = 4x + 14 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is 4 and the intercept is 14.

3) y = -4x + 14 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is - 4 and the intercept is 14.

4) y = 2x + 7 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is 2 and the intercept is 7.

5) y = -2x + 7 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is - 2 and the intercept is 7.

Help don’t know what to do
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

=6

Step-by-step explanation:

find the LCM of the two denominators 3 and 6 which is 6

equate in that such that 6÷3*2x=4x

6÷6×x=x

add the two=5x

5x/6=5

multiply by six both sides

5x=30

divide both sides by 5 to get x

x=6

Find 2 consecutive even numbers such that the sum of the
Elena L [17]

Answer:

14,16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first even number.

Let y be the 2nd even number.

Given, y - x = 2 (Since they are 2 consecutive even numbers.)

rearranging the equation: y = x+2 (equation 1)

Also given,

y+2x=44\\ (equation 2)

Now we can substitute equation 1 into equation 2 to find x.

x+2+2x = 44\\3x+2 = 44\\3x = 44-2\\3x=42\\x = \frac{42}{3} \\x = 14

Given the smaller even number x, is 14, we will substitute x into equation1 to find y, the bigger even number.

y = 14+2

= 16

Therefore the 2 numbers are 14 and 16.
