Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method (let's say that Newtons = N):

9N on Earth = 2N on Namar

400N on Earth = xN on Namar

(2 × 400) ÷ 9 = xN on Namar

800 ÷ 9 = xN on Namar

88.888.. = xN on Namar


Since your answer must be to the nearest Newton, I'm guessing that you need to round your answer to the nearest whole number. This means that since the number in the tenths column is more than 5 (could also be equal to 5), you need to round the number up.


88.888... rounded to the nearest whole number = 89


Your answer is: The girl weigh 89 newtons on Namar.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

How to find the number of sides of a polygon when given the interior angle sum
wariber [46]

Given:

Sum of interior angle

To find:

Number of sides of a polygon

Solution:

Using sum of interior angles formula:

$S=(n-2) \times 180^{\circ}

where "S" is the sum of interior angels and "n" is the number of sides of a polygon.

Divide by 180° on both sides.

$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}=\frac{(n-2) \times 180^{\circ}}{180^{\circ}}

Cancel common factor 180°.

$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}=n-2

Add 2 on both sides.

$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}+2=n-2+2

$\frac{S}{180^{\circ}}+2=n

Switch the sides.

$n=\frac{sum}{180^{\circ}}+2

Therefore number of sides of a polygon is n=\frac{sum}{180^{\circ}}+2.

The sum of the roots of 3x 2 + 11x - 4 = 0 is<br><br> -11/3<br> -4/3<br> 11/3<br> 4/3
givi [52]

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadratic equation is defined as

ax^2+bx+c=0             .... (1)

Then the sum of the roots is -b/a and the product of roots is c/a.

The given equation is

3x^2+11x-4=0          ... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get a=3, b=11 and c=-4.

The sum of roots is

\frac{-b}{a}=-\frac{11}{3}

The sum of roots is -\frac{11}{3}.

Therefore the correct option is 1.

In this figure, AB || CD and mZ6 = 75"<br> What is mZ3?<br> Enter your answer in the box.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem:

If parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then same-side interior angles are supplementary.

Lines AB and CD are parallel, and angles 3 and 6 are same-side interior angles, so by the theorem above, angles 3 and 6 are supplementary. That means that the sum of their measures is 180 deg.

m<3 + m<6 = 180

m<3 + 75 = 180

Subtract 75 from both sides.

m<3 = 105

Answer: 105 degrees
