X - the number of plants in 8 in pots
y - the number of plants in 10 in pots

x+y=6\\
5x+8y=36\\\\
x=6-y\\
5x+8y=36\\
5(6-y)+8y=36\\
30-5y+8y=36\\
3y=6\\
y=2\\\\
x+2=6\\
x=4

4 plants in 8 in pots and 2 in 10 in pots.

The weight of an object on the moon is
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

40 2/5Ibs or 40\frac{2}{5} lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let weight of object on the moon be represented = Wm

weight of object on the Earth = We

In the above question, we are told:

The weight of an object on the moon is

5 of its weight on Earth.

Hence, mathematically, this is represented as:

 5Wm = We

If a moon rock weighs 202 lbs on Earth

5Wm = 202lbs

Wm = 202lbs/5

Wm = 40\frac{2}{5}Ibs

Therefore, the moon rock weighs 40\frac{2}{5}Ibs on the moon.

State the independent variable and dependent variable and find the slope.
Rudik [331]
Time is your independent variable, and snowfall is your dependent variable.

Slope can be found by calculating ∆y/∆x:
x =  \frac{0.06 - 0.02}{3 - 1}  \\ x =   \frac{0.04}{2}  \\ x = 0.02

Snowfall will accumulate 0.02 m every hour.
