Answer:

It will take Molly 1 hour to catch up to Jonas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Molly starts riding her bike to school 20 minutes after her brother Jonas does, and Molly pedals 12 miles per hour, and Jonas pedals 9 miles per hour, to determine how much time will it take for Molly to catch up to Jonas the following calculation has to be done:

Jonas = 9 miles per 60 minutes = 3 miles per 20 minutes

Molly = 12 miles for 60 minutes

Jonas = 3 miles + 9 = 12

Molly = 12

Therefore, it will take Molly 1 hour to catch up to Jonas.

The relationship between the measurements of the Earth Radius and Earth Mass of the ten exoplanets that are in closest proximity

Otrada [13]

The relationship is modeled by the equation y = 7.7079x - 7.
Here, y is the dependent variable which is the Earth Mass, and x is the independent variable which is the Earth Radius.
Solving for the Earth Mass if Earth Radius is 1.1 (x=1.1), we substitute 1.1 to x.

y = 7.7079(1.1) - 7
y = 8.47869 - 7
y = 1.47869
y ≈ 1.4787
