Answer:

  16

Step-by-step explanation:

Your weight is (roughly) proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance you are from the center of the earth. If that distance is reduced to 1/4 its previous value, then your weight will be multiplied by the factor ...

  1/(1/4)² = 16

You would weigh 16 times as much.

Wolverine makes a $1000 down payment for a motorcycle and then pays $300 per month. James Bond makes a $2500 down payment for a
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount after 10 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the number of months after which both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount.

As Wolverine makes a $1000 down payment for a motorcycle and then pays $300 per month,

Amount paid by Wolverine in x months is equal to 1000+300x

As James Bond makes a $2500 down payment for a motorcycle and then pays $150 per month,

Amount paid by James Bond in x months is equal to 2500+150x

To find number of months after which both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount,

solve 1000+300x=2500+150x

1000+300x=2500+150x\\300x-150x=2500-1000\\150x=1500\\x=\frac{1500}{150}=10

So, both Wolverine and James Bond will have paid the same amount after 10 months.
