Answer:
the correct choice is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 8x, and the difference is ...
8x -x = 280
7x = 280 . . . . . simplify
x = 40 . . . . . . divide by 7
The larger number is 8x = 8(40) = 320.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Effectively, we have solved for the multiplier (40) that gives the ratio with 320 on top and a difference between top and bottom of 280:

Answer:
40 2/5Ibs or
lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let weight of object on the moon be represented = Wm
weight of object on the Earth = We
In the above question, we are told:
The weight of an object on the moon is
5 of its weight on Earth.
Hence, mathematically, this is represented as:
5Wm = We
If a moon rock weighs 202 lbs on Earth
5Wm = 202lbs
Wm = 202lbs/5
Wm =
Ibs
Therefore, the moon rock weighs
Ibs on the moon.
G(x)=|x+3|-5
down five units means add -5 to then end of the equation
