Answer:

5.02 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k*x

Where,

y = weight of a object on Jupiter

x = weight of the object on earth

k = constant of proportionality

An object that weighs 150 ponds on earth would weigh 378.2 ponds on Jupiter.

y = k*x

378.2 = k*150

378.2 = 150k

k = 378.2/150

= 2.5213

Approximately k = 2.52

determine how Much a rock that weigh 12.64 on Jupiter would weigh on earth

y = k*x

12.64 = 2.52*x

12.64 = 2.52x

x = 12.64 / 2.52

= 5.0159

Approximately x = 5.02 pounds

<h3>Answer:</h3>

\frac{1}{9}

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We know that x=-2, so substitute that into the equation. y=3^{-2}

With negative powers, instead of making the result negative, you divide one by it.  Mathematically speaking, x^{-y}=\frac{1}{x^y}.  This makes our equation: y=\frac{1}{3^2}

Finally, simplify the exponent. y=\frac{1}{9}

Trina is purchasing a new bike the store is having 20% off sale and she as 10% coupon of the sale price if the original price of
marusya05 [52]
20% of 89.75 is 17.95
\frac{20}{100}  =  \frac{x}{89.75}  \\ x =  \frac{89.75 \times 20}{100} =  \frac{1795}{100}  = 17.95
so :
89.75 - 19.95 = 71.8
the Trina's coupon will subtract the answer by 10%:

10%of 71.8 is 7.18
\frac{10}{100}  =  \frac{x}{71.8}  \\ x =  \frac{71.8 \times 10}{100}  =  \frac{718}{100}  = 7.18
so the final answer is:
71.8 - 7.18 = 64.62
she has to pay $64.62
hope this helps

Simplify the problem: Sin theta Sec Theta
kherson [118]

Answer:

\tan \theta

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to simplify the following expression as given by

\sin \theta \times \sec \theta

= \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}

= \tan \theta ( Answer )

Because, we know that \sec \theta =\frac{1}{\cos \theta} and \tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}

If we consider \sin \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse} and \sec \theta = \frac{Hypotenuse}{Base},

then \sin \theta \times \sec \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\times \frac{Hypotenuse}{Base} = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}= \tan \theta

Consider the equation below.<br> -2(bx-5)=16 <br> Answer quick
Vlada [557]

Answer:

b= −3 /x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add -10 to both sides.

−2bx+10+−10=16+−10

−2bx=6

Step 2: Divide both sides by -2x.

−2bx

−2x

=

6

−2x

b= −3 /x
