Step-by-step explanation:
Given an expression that represents a submarine that began at a depth of 15 feet below sea level and ascended at a rate of feet per minute is as follows :
-320+15y
We need to find the depth of submarine after 15 minutes.
Put y = 15 in the above expression.
-320+15y = -320+15(15)
= -320 + 225
= -95
Hence, the submarine is below sea level at 95 feet.

Answer:
<h2>
After 5 hours</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If a scientist counts 35 bacteria present in a culture and finds that the number of bacteria triples each hour and the function y = 35 ∙ 3x models the number of bacteria after x hours, in order to estimate when there will be about 550 bacteria in the culture we will substitute y = 550 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of x as shown;
If y = 35*3x
when y = 550
550 = 35*3x
Dividing both sides by 35;
550/35 = 35*3x/35
3x = 550/35
x = 550/3*35
x = 550/105
x = 5.24
This means that there will be 550 bacteria in the culture after approximately 5 hours
You can put the x over the number
