rth compared to weight on the moon would be e = 6m, where e = weight on the earth and m = weight on the moon. The space suit that an astronaut wears while making a moon walk would weigh approximately 90 pounds on earth. What would be the weight of a 180 pound man wearing a space suit on the moon

Answer:

m = 45 pounds

The weight is 45 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the variation is

e = 6m

For the space suit that weighs 90 pounds on Earth

90 = 6m

m = 90/6

m = 15

It's going to weigh 15 pounds on the moon

If the man's weight on Earth is 180 pounds and space suit is 90 pounds

Total weight on Earth vis 180+90= 270 pounds

Weight on moon is

270 = 6m

m= 270/6

m = 45 pounds

180+90=6m combine like terms on left side

270=6m divide both sides by 6

m=45 lb

When a farmer harvests apples he expects 6% of the apples to be rotten how many apples would the farmer expect to be rotting whe
guapka [62]

The question is incomplete had the number of harvested apples isn't given.

Answer:

0.06n

Step-by-step explanation:

When a farmer harvests apples he expects 6% of the apples to be rotten how many apples would the farmer expect to be rotting when harvesting apples

The expected percentage of rotten apples when harvesting = 6%

The expected number of rotten apples can be obtained by taking the product of the expected percentage and the number of apples to be harvested.

Since the number of harvested apples isn't given,

Let the number of harvested apples = n

Therefore, the expected number of rotten apples will be :

6% * n

0.06n

Note : you can easily substitute the actual number of harvested apples for n in the equto get the actual answer
