Answer:  85 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:-

Given : The weight of an object on Venus is about \dfrac{9}{10} it's weight on Earth and the weight of an object on Mars is about \dfrac{2}{5} it's weight on Earth.

When somebody weighs 170-pound , then his weight on Venus will be :_

\dfrac{9}{10}\times17=153\text{ pounds}

His weight on Mars will be :-

\dfrac{2}{5}\times170=68\text{ pounds}

Then , the difference  in the weight of a 170-pound person on Venus and Mars :-

153-68=85

Hence, the difference  in the weight of a 170-pound person on Venus and Mars = 85 pounds

The figures are similar. Give the ratio of the perimeters and the ratio of the areas of the first figure to the second.
pickupchik [31]

Answer: first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the area of the triangles can be calculated as following:

ratio_{(area)}=(\frac{l_1}{l_2})^2

Where l_1 is the lenght of the given side of the smaller triangle and l_2 is the lenght of the given side of the larger triangle.

Therefore:

ratio_{(area)}=(\frac{28}{32})^2=\frac{49}{64}

It can be written as following:

ratio_{(area)}=49:64

The ratio of the perimeter is:

ratio_{(perimeter)}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}

Where l_1 is the lenght of the given side of the smaller triangle and l_2 is the lenght of the given side of the larger triangle.

Therefore:

ratio_{(perimeter)}=\frac{28}{32}=\frac{7}{8}

It can be written as following:

ratio_{(perimeter)}=7:8

The sum of two numbers is 36. one number is 3 times as large as the other. what are the numbers
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Answer: 9 and 27
Explanation: x+3x=36
Combine like terms
4x=36
Divide by 4
X=9, which would be one of the numbers.

So if x = 9 we would do 3(9) which would equal 27

So the answer would be 9 and 27

Hope this helps!
