I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>

(x-5)(x+3)=0
x^2+3x-5x-15=0
(x^2+3x) (-5x-15)
x(x+3) -5(x+3)
x-5=0 x+3=0
x=5 OR -3
Answer:
A 100 lb person will weight 40 lb on Mars
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Weight on Mars directly varies as its weight on earth.
Let weight on Mars be = 
Let weight on Earth be = 
Its known that:
∝ 
Thus
where
is constant of proportionality.
when
, then 
thus, we have
dividing both sides by 95.
∴ 
Thus when
,
would be calculated as


∴
(Answer)
∴ A 100 lb person will weight 40 lb on Mars.
The shaded region is a parallelogram.
The formula for the area of any parallelogram is

.
The base of the parallelogram is 2 meters long (given).
The height of the parallelogram is 9 meters (do not be fooled by the unnecessary information of 14 meters)
The height is 9 meters because the height has to be perpendicular to the base. Thus, the side length must be 9 meters.
Multiply them together.

The area of the parallelogram is 18 square meters.
