Use at least three sentences to describe a concept or word that you learned in your math class this week. You also may use the three sentences to describe something you do not understand.
5 lbs Earth divided by 2 lbs Mercury times 225 tons Earth divided by wt. Mercury
ReplyDelete2 times 225 equals 450 5 divided by 2 equals 2 and i half 225 divided by 90 equals 2 and 1 half.
450 divided by 5 equals 90
The weight of the statue of Liberty on Mercury would be 90 tons.

ReplyDeletefor every pound on mercury there is a 2.5 weight difference on earth so if the statue of liberty ways 225=450,000 (1ton=2000)
450000/2.5=180000 pounds in conclusion the statue of liberty will way 180000 pounds
On mercury the statue of liberty weighs 90 tons. I converted 225 tons to 450,000 pounds. I set up the proportion 5 over 450,000 equals 2 over x. Next I cross multiplied and divided and got 180,000. Then I converted 180,000 pounds to 90 tons.

One concept i have learned this week was translation on the X-axis and Y-axis. For example; 4 down, 2 left.
ReplyDeleteYou have to end up with the same shape on the other side of the x or y axis.

ReplyDeleteOn Mercury, The Statue of Liberty would weigh 90 tons. The way I figured this out was taking the percentage of 2 from 5, which was 40%. Basically, I took 40 percent from the 225 tons of The Statue of Liberty and my answer was 90 tons.

ReplyDeleteI don't understand chapter 9.6. I understand the formula/ putting the numbers in their spots. I don't understand how you solve the problem

An object weight 5 pounds on earth will weight 2 pounds on Mercury. That mean when is 225 tons on earth is will weight 90 tons on Mercury. I know that because if is 225 tons that mean is 450,000 pounds. what I did was divided 450,000/2.5 that equal 180,000 that mean the statue of liberty will weight 90tons on Mercury.
if something that weighs 5 pounds on Earth and weighs 2 pounds on mercury then the statue would weigh 90 tons. I know this because 450,000 is the same as 225 tons so then I would divide that by 2.5. So 450,000/2.5=90 tons.

On mercury the statue of liberty would way 90 tons. I got my answer by first doing 450,000 divided by 2.5 which equals 180,000. That converts or translates to 90 tons.

ReplyDeleteOne thing I learned this week was the quadratic formula. You must get your formula into ax+bc+c=0. You have to do that before you start putting all of your numbers in the actual formula.

ReplyDeleteOne thing that I did this week was how to solve quadratic formula. Before you solve the equation you have get in to ax2+bx+c=0.Here is an example 3x2+5x=8. First you would do minus 8 on both sides and get 3x2+5x-8=0. And then solve.

if every thing on mercury weighs only 2 pounds. than on earth the liberty statue weighs 225 pounds. so I would divide it by 2 and that means on mercury it weighs 112.5 pounds.
