Answer:

Weight on the moon = 43.60 l b

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of the object on the moon be M.

Let the weight of the object on the earth be E.

M α E

M = kE (where k = constant)

Make k the subject of the formula.

k = M/E

When M = 25.46 l b and E = 149.76 l b

k = 25.46/149.76

k = 0.17

Put k = 0.17 into the equation M = kE

Therefore;

M = 0.17E ( This shows the relationship between M and E)

When E = 256.47 l b

M = 0.17 * 256.47

M = 43.60 l b

PLEASE ANSWER WITH AN EXPLANATION! THANK YOU
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{A=153\ cm^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Look at the picture.</em>

We have

square with side length a = 9

trapezoid with base lengths b₁ = 9 and b₂ = 6 and the height length h = 6

right triangle with legs lengths l₁ = 3 + 6 = 9 and l₂ = 6

The formula of an area of a square

A=a^2

Substitute:

A_I=9^2=81\ cm^2

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h

Substitute:

A_{II}=\dfrac{9+6}{2}\cdot6=\dfrac{15}{2\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}\cdot6\!\!\!\!\diagup^3=(15)(3)=45\ cm^2

The formula of an area of a right triangle:

A=\dfrac{l_1l_2}{2}

Substitute:

A_{III}=\dfrac{(9)(6)}{2}=\dfrac{54}{2}=27\ cm^2

The area of the shape:

A=A_I+A_{II}+A_{III}\\\\A=81+45+27=153\ cm^2

Chen completed the division problem below.
alekssr [168]

<u>Answer:</u>

B. He multiplied the dividend by 100 instead of 10.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Chen had to divide 1.926 by 0.9. To make it easier to divide, he thought of multiplying both the dividend and the divisor by 10.

Chen multiplied the divisor by 10 but mistakenly multiplied the dividend by 100 instead of 10.

So his whole division problem was changed.

Therefore, the correct answer option is B. He multiplied the dividend by 100 instead of 10.
