Your flight will have to cover a distance of 162,000,000 miles. Your spacecraft can fly at a speed of 36,000 miles per hour. Which equation will determine how long your trip will take? Note: t represents time in hours.
162,000,000-36,000 = t
36,000t = 162,000,000
162,000,000t = 36,000
T = 162,000,000 x 36,000
There is a total of 4,687,500 calories worth of food on board. Your spacecraft is holding 8 people and has enough food that each crew member can eat 2,500 calories per day for the entire length of the 187.5 day trip. The spacecraft also carries c calories of extra food for emergencies. Which equation would determine how many extra calories of food, c, are the spacecraft in case of an emergency?
4,687,500 = 8 x 2,500 x 187.5 + c
2,500c x 187.5 x 8 = 4,687,500
8 x 2,500 x 187.5 = c
4,687,500 = 8 x 2,500 x 187.5 - c
A machine called Moxie will produce about 20 grams of oxygen every hour and will run all day. A space suit's primary oxygen tank holds 0.55 kilograms of oxygen. Considering the amount of oxygen Moxie produces per day, by what percentage must this amount increase in order to fill a space suit's tank in a single day?
20%
30%

Temperature on Earth can range from -126 F to 136F. NASA has collected data indicating that when you travel to the moon, it might be as low as -225 F or as warm as 70 F. Which equation determines how many more degrees larger the range of temperatures is on the Moon than on Earth?
|[70 + (-225)] + [136 + (-126)]| = | - 140| = 140 degrees
[136 - (-126)] + [70 -(-225)] = 557 degrees
[70-(-225)] - [136 - (-126)] = 33 degrees
[136 + 70] - [(-225) + (-126)]= 557 degrees
