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.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Fraction 8/20

Step-by-step explanation:

So only 12 people don't use sugar so if we were to put a fraction for people who don't put sugar then it would be.

12/20

The 20 stands about how many people their are and the 12 stands for how many people don't put sugar.

So now we are supposed ot do peope who put sugar so it would look like this

8/20

How I got the 8 is that I took the 20 people and subtrack it with the people who don't get sugar which is 8 and 8 people use sugar so theirs our answers.

8/20

Next: |5-10|= 5, since N and M share the same y value

Lastly you would plug in those values to find the area of a triangle: 5*20*1/2= 50 in
