Algebra.Com's Answer #349493 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The force of gravity on Jupiter is about 2 1/2 times that of Earth. How much would a 140 lb object weigh on Jupiter? \n" ); document.write( "I thought the equation would look like this: \n" ); document.write( "(5/2)x=140 \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "Jupiter weight = (2 1/2)*140 = (5/2)*140 = 350 lbs. \n" ); document.write( "======================= \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============== \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
