62.7

165 * 1.38 = 227.7

Answer: 62.7 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : On Mars, an object weighs 38% as much as on Earth.

We can write 38% as 0.38 [We divide percent by 100 to convert it in to decimal]

If the weight of an person on Earth is 165 pounds, then his weight of Mars will be :-

$0.38\times165=62.7\ \text{ pounds}$

Hence, the weight of person on Mars= 62.7 pounds

Answer: 4x² -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, evaluate the exponent you'll get, $3^{0}$ + 4x² -5 then evaluate to get, 1+ 4x² -5. Next, subtract the numbers, 1 + 4x² -5 then to get, -4 +4x². Lastly, rearrange the terms, -4 +4x² turns into, 4x² -4!
