Hi, thank you for posting your question.

This problem can be solved through ratio and proportion which can be applied to similar triangles like that shown in the figure. By ratio and proprotion,

MP/MN = MB/MA
81.9/67.2 = x/(67.2-32)

Thus, x = 42.9

In a weightless environment, an astronaut lose about 1.5% calcium in their bodies per month. Suppose some astronauts flew to Mar

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

12.3 months

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the number of months (m) such that ...

1 - 17% = (1 -1.5%)^m

Taking logarithms:

log(0.83) = m·log(0.985)

m = log(0.83)/log(0.985) ≈ 12.3 . . . . months

Helen determined she walks about 1,800 steps per 4/5 mile. How many steps did she take if she walked 3 miles?

olga_2 [115]

$1,800\ steps\ \ \rightarrow\ \ \frac{4}{5} \ mile\\ x\ \ \rightarrow\ \ 3\ miles\\ \\\frac{4}{5} \cdot x=1,800\cdot 3\ /\cdot\frac{5}{4} \\ \\x=1,800\cdot\frac{5}{4}\cdot3 \\ \\x=450\cdot15\\ \\x=6750\ [steps]$
