The pressure at sea level is 11 atmosphere and increases at a constant rate as depth increases. When Sydney dives to a depth of 2323 meters, the pressure around her is 3.33.3 atmospheres. The pressure pp in atmospheres is a function of xx, the depth in meters. Write the function's formula.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

p(x) = 0.1x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Pressure at sea level = 1 atmosphere

Depth dove by Sydney = 23 meters

Pressure at a depth of 23 meters = 3.3 atmospheres

So,

Pressure at a depth of 23 meters = Pressure at sea level + k * Depth dove by Sydney

where k is  the diving rate constant

=> 3.3 = 1 + k(23)

=> 3.3 = 23k + 1

Subtracting 1 from both the sides, we get

3.3 - 1 = 23k + 1 -1

Cancelling out the +1 and -1 from the right side, we get

2.3 = 23k

=> 23k = 2.3

Dividing both sides by 23, we get

(23k)/(23) = (2.3)/(23)

Cancelling out the 23's from the top and bottom of the left side, we have

k = 0.1

Plugging in the value of k in the equation, we get

Pressure at a particular depth = Pressure at sea level + k * Depth dove by Sydney

p(x) = 1 + k(x)     [where p(x) is the pressure at a depth x]

=> p(x) = 1 + 0.1(x)

=> p(x) = 0.1x + 1

The relation {(4,10), (1,9), (5,10), (1,10)} is a function

Answers

it is not a function

for functions to work, there can only be one y value per x value aka if you see a set like this:  

{(4,2), (6,5), (10,1), (3,6), (6,7)}  

It is not a function because there are two y values (5 and 7) for one x value (6).

Wayne has a recipe on a 3 inch by 5 inch index card that he wants to    enlarge to 15 inches long. How wide will the enlargement be?Also I'm really sorry for the people that I just put random things that's why there is more pts on this question once again I'm sorry for the random things that I put hope you guys would forgive me okay bye.

Answers

I'm not completely sure which way they would like for you to do it
but anyways

3 to 15 is a times 5
so 5 times 5 is 25
so a possible width can be 25
as in 15 by 25

or

5 to 15 is times 3
so 3 times 3 is 9
so a possible width can be 9
as in 15 by 9

I personally think 25 inches wide would be the better answer
