Question 1005821: The relative gravity on Jupiter is 2.34. This means that the weight of an object on Jupiter is 2.34 times greater than its weight on Earth. Identify the slope and the y intercept of the equation representing this relationship and then write an equation for the situation in slope intercept form. Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since zero weight on Earth is zero weight on Jupiter, the y-intercept is zero.
Call J the weight on Jupiter and E the weight on Earth. Thus we have
J = 2.34E + 0
The slope is 2.34.
