The gravitational force that earth exerts on an object is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the center of the earth and the object. when bill is on the surface of earth, 4,000 miles from the center, the gravitational force is 600 newtons. what is the gravitational force (in newtons) that the earth exerts on him when he's standing on the moon, 240,000 miles from the center of the earth? express your answer as a fraction

Use a calculator to verify that σ(x) = 62, σ(x2) = 1034, σ(y) = 644, σ(y2) = 93,438, and σ(x y) = 9,622. compute r. (enter a number. round your answer to three decimal places.) as x increases from 3 to 22 months, does the value of r imply that y should tend to increase or decrease? explain your answer. given our value of r, y should tend to increase as x increases. given our value of r, we can not draw any conclusions for the behavior of y as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to remain constant as x increases. given our value of r, y should tend to decrease as x increases.
