Answer:
16 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
As you said, objects weigh 6 times more than what they weigh on the moon. Therefore, the robot originally weighing 96 pounds will be reduced to 16 pounds.
16*6=96. (Original Weight)
96/6=16. (Weight after being on the moon.)
If the graphs of the equations do not intersect
If the equation is in the form of y = mx + C, where m and C are real numbers, the slope (which means gradient) of the line is the coefficient of x (I.e. the number to the left of x in simple language), which is m.
In this case, m = 54 and C = -13pie. Both are real numbers, which means that this equation satisfies the form of y = mx + C
m is the coefficient of x, which is 54. 54 is the gradient of this line, which means that for every 54 y-axis units the line increases, the line increases 1 x-axis unit.
Hope this helps! :)
The first package is 4 oz (1/4lb) at 79cents = 19.75 cents/oz
Second Package is 8 oz at 1.59 = 19.875 cents / oz
So the first package is cheaper per ounce.
