Answer:
<u>The correct answer is A. Approximately 10.4 kg.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us for solving the question:
Weight of the astronaut on Earth = 49 kg
Weight of the astronaut on the moon = 1/6 * 49 kg
Weight of the astronaut on Mars = 0.38 * 49 kg
2. What is the difference between the astronaut's weight on Mars and her weight on the moon? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Weight of the astronaut on the moon = 1/6 * 49 kg
Weight of the astronaut on the moon = 8.2 kg
Weight of the astronaut on Mars = 0.38 * 49 kg
Weight of the astronaut on Mars = 18.6 kg
Difference between the astronaut's weight on Mars and her weight on the moon = 18.6 - 8.2
<u>Difference between the astronaut's weight on Mars and her weight on the moon = 10.4 kg</u>
