the weight M of an object on Mars varies directly as it’s weight E on Earth. A person who weighs 95 lb on Earth weighs 38 lb on

lorasvet [3.4K]

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 = $M$

Let weight on Earth be = $E$

Its known that:

$M$ ∝ $E$

Thus

$M=kE$

where $k$ is constant of proportionality.

when $E=95\ lb$ , then $M=38\ lb$

thus, we have

$38=k(95)$

dividing both sides by 95.

$\frac{38}{95}=\frac{k(95)}{95}$

∴ $k=\frac{38}{95}$

Thus when $E= 100$ , $M$ would be calculated as

$M=\frac{38}{95}\times 100$

$M=\frac{3800}{95}$

∴ $M=40\ lb$ (Answer)

∴ A 100 lb person will weight 40 lb on Mars.

Mrs. Ramiriz is making pies to sell at the local farmer’s market. It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30

gregori [183]

The answer is 5x + 30 = 12x

x - the number of pies

It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30 for baking supplies:
COST: f(c) = 5x + 30

She plans to sell the pies for $12 each:
PROFIT: f(p) = 12x

To find the number of pies she needs to sell to break even:
f(c) = f(p)
5x + 30 = 12x

A student organization wondered how many hours per week college students study during a term. Each of the 10 students in the org

Inga [223]

Answer:

No, a convenience sample was taken.Therefore, the sample may not be representative of all college students in terms of number of hours studied per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the important conditions required in other to estimate the mean of the population from the confidence interval. Requires that the data must be a random Sample. This is to ensure that sample values are not biased and as such are representative of the larger group of data.

However, in the scenario described above, the sample chose. Are friend's of the student, this makes the data lack randomness as those who aren't friends to the student do not stand a chance of being selected. The sampling procedure employed is called convenience sampling.

A group of friends went to the movies. Movie tickets cost $8.50 each. One of the group bought some food for $6.50. The group spe

Liula [17]

Answer:

Equation: $8.5t+6.5=57.5$

Solution: $t=6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "t" the number of movie tickets bought by the group of friends.

According to the information given in the exercise, the price of each movie ticket is: $8.50.

Then, you can represent the amount (in dollars) the group of friends spent in movie tickets, with this expression:

$8.5t$

You know that one person spent $6.50, then the expression that represents the total amount (in dollars) the group of friends spent in food and movie tickets, is:

$8.5t+6.5$

Since that total amount spent is given in the exercise, you can write the following equation to determine how many tickets were bought:

$8.5t+6.5=57.5$

Finally, you can solve for "t" in order to find the solution of the equation. This is:

$8.5t=57.5-6.5\\\\t=\frac{51}{8.5}\\\\t=6$
