Suppose x represents an objects weight on Earth. Write two expressions: one that you can use to find the objects weight on Mars

and another that you can use to write the object’s weight on the Moon.

The weight of an object is the product of its mass and the acceleration of gravity.
If g[e] is the acceleration of gravity on earth, and g[M] the same for Mars and g[m] the same for the moon,
then m[M]=m[e]g[M]/g[e] and m[m]=m[e]g[m]/g[e] where m[ ] denotes mass. Note that weight=mg (measured in newtons) while mass is in kilograms.
If g[M]=g[e]/3 and g[m]=g[e]/6 approximately. Then the weight of an object on Mars will be about a third of what it is on earth, while on the moon it would be about a sixth of what it is on earth.

Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1, on
Umnica [9.8K]
To check all the events (6), we label the chips. Suppose one chip with 1 is labeled R1 and the other B1 (as if they were red and blue). Now, lets take all combinations; for the first chip, we have 4 choices and for the 2nd chip we have 3 remaining choices. Thus there are 12 combinations. Since we dont care about the order, there are only 6 combinations since for example R1, 3 is the same as 3, R1 for us.
The combinations are: (R1, B1), (R1, 3), (R1, 5), (B1, 3), (B1, 5), (3,5)

We have that in 1 out of the 6 events, Miguel wins 2$ and in five out of the 6 events, he loses one. The expected value of this bet is: 1/6*2+5/6*(-1)=-3/6=-0.5$. In general, the expected value of the bet is the sum of taking the probabilities of the outcome multiplied by the outcome; here, there is a 1/6 probability of getting the same 2 chips and so on. On average, Miguel loses half a dollar every time he plays.

Joaquin wants to make his famous chocolate chip cookies to bring to his friend's birthday party. The original recipe serves 8 pe
Valentin [98]

Answer: He will need 1 1/4 cups of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can do 28/8 to find how much we need to multiply our 1/2 cup of butter to keep the ratio of people to cups of butter the same. 28/8= 3 1/2

2. Then we can multiply 3 1/2 and 1/2 to get 1 1/4 cups of butter.

Find the area of the convex polygon with vertices (0,5), (-1,2), (4,4), (-3,-4) and (2,0).
Afina-wow [57]

The area of the convex polygon is 43/2 square units

<h3>How to determine the area of the convex polygon?</h3>

The vertices are given as:

(0,5), (-1,2), (4,4), (-3,-4) and (2,0)

The area is then calculated as:

A = \frac 12(\left[\begin{array}{cc}x_1&x_2\\y_1&y_2\end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{cc}x_2&x_3\\y_2&y_3\end{array}\right] + ....+\left[\begin{array}{cc}x_n&x\\y_n&y\end{array}\right] )

So, we have:

A = \frac12 * (|-1 * 5 - 2 * 0 + 0 * 4 - 5 * 4 + 4 * 0 - 4 * 2 + 2 * -4 - 0 * -3 -3 * 2 + 4 * 1|)

Evaluate

A = \frac12 * (|-43|)

Remove the absolute bracket

A = \frac12 * 43

This gives

A = \frac{43}2

Hence, the area of the convex polygon is 43/2 square units
