A man who weighs 185 lb on Earth weighs 30.8 lb on the Moon

Two variables are said to be directly proportional if as one variable increases/decreases, the other variables does the same by the same amount.

Let y represent the weight of object on earth and x represent the weight of object on the moon.

y ∝ x

y = kx

When y = 66, x = 10.92, hence:

66 = 10.92k

k = 6

When y = 185 lb:

185 = 6x

x = 30.8 lb

A man who weighs 185 lb on Earth weighs 30.8 lb on the Moon

ILL BRAINLIEST YOU PLEASE HELP ME
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

x = 71/5  (as an improper fraction)

x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction

x = 14.2 (as a decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a rectangle so the diagonals are equal

7x - 9 = 2x + 62

Subtract 2x from both sides

5x - 9 = 62

Add 9 to both sides

5x = 71

Divide both sides by 5

x = 71/5  (as an improper fraction)

x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction

x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
