Solution:

we are given that

The magnitudes of the moon and Sirius are -12.5 and -1.44 respectively.

we have been asked to find approximately how many times is the moon brighter than Sirius?

The word magnitude is used by the scientist to describe the brightness of moon/star/object etc.

So we can find the brightness by dividing the given values. so we get

\frac{-12.5}{-1.44} =8.6805

Hence we can say

The moon is 8.68 times brighter than Sirius.

True [87]
16x+9=9y-2x\ \ |Add\ 2x\ to\ both\ sides\\\\
16x+9+2x=9y-2x+2x\\\\
18x+9=9y\ \ \ |Divide\ by\ 9\\\\
\frac{18x}{9}+\frac{9}{9}=\frac{9y}{9}\\\\
2x+1=y\\\\
Solution\ is\ y=2x+1.
