Answer: 150 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the the astronaut weight on Earth be represented by x.

Based on the information given in the question, thus can be formed into an equation as:

16.5% of x = 24.75

16.5% × x = 24.75

16.5/100 × x = 24.75

0.165x = 24.75

x = 24.75/0.165

x = 150 pounds

The astronaut weigh 150 pounds on Earth.

Suppose x is a real number and epsilon > 0. Prove that (x - epsilon, x epsilon) is a neighborhood of each of its members; in
kaheart [24]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use properties of inequalities during the proof.

Let y\in (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon). then we have that x-\epsilon. Hence, it makes sense to define the positive number delta as \delta=\min\{x+\epsilon-y,y-(x-\epsilon)\} (the inequality guarantees that these numbers are positive).

Intuitively, delta is the shortest distance from y to the endpoints of the interval. Now, we claim that (y-\delta,y+\delta)\subseteq  (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon), and if we prove this, we are done. To prove it, let z\in (y-\delta,y+\delta), then y-\delta. First, \delta \leq y-(x-\epsilon) then -\delta \geq -y+x-\epsilon hence z>y-\delta \geq x-\epsilon

On the other hand, \delta \leq x+\epsilon-y then z hence z. Combining the inequalities, we have that  x-\epsilon, therefore (y-\delta,y+\delta)\subseteq  (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon) as required.

Mrs. Garcia’s students were asked to find 220% of 75. Each of the students had a different method.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Colton.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy: 220% is basically \frac{220}{100} which in decimal form, is 2.20.

Braden: 100% + 100% + 20% = 220%, so it is accurate.

Colton: 100%  + 10% + 10% = 120%, not 220%.

Dainielle: 100% of 75 is 75. Dividing the 100% of 75 by 5 makes a 20%. Adding 100% of 75 twice makes 200%. 200% + 20% = 220%, so it is accurate.

Prove that A is in the subset B if P(A) is in the subset P(B)
natima [27]
Show that if p(a) ⊂ p(b) then a ⊂ b. 

<span>I will assume p() means power set. </span>

<span>proof: let x∈a, then {x} ∈ p(a) and so by hypothesis {x} ∈ p(b). However {x} could not be in p(b) unless x∈b. This shows that each element of a is an element of b and hence a ⊂ b.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
