At higher elevations water boils at lower temperatures. The temperature at which water boils is called the boiling point of wate

r. At sea level the boiling point of water is 100oC, while at 2 kilometers of elevation (about 6550 feet) the boiling point of water is 94oC. The function that gives the boiling point of water in oC, B
B
, at an elevation of x
x
kilometers is B(x)=100−3.5x
B(x)=100-3.5x
.

Determine the elevations at which the boiling point of water is between 84 oC and 96 oC. Give your answer accurate to 1 decimal place.

B(x) = 100 - 3.5x
84 = 100 - 3.5x
3.5x = 100 - 84 = 16
x = 16/3.5 = 4.6 kilometers

96 = 100 - 3.5x
3.5x = 100 - 96 = 4
x = 4/3.5 = 1.1 kilometers

Therefore, the boiling point of water is between 84°C and 96°C at elevations of between 4.6 kilometers and 1.1 kilometers.

Problem 10

You are correct. The answer is choice C. The cm^3 notation represents cubic centimeters, which is a unit for volume. Think of a 1 cm by 1 cm by 1 cm cube.

======================================================

Problem 11

This problem is a bit strange. She borrows money ($100) but then it says she earns $300 per day. It makes no mention of her paying that $100 back, or when it's due back. I'll just assume that she keeps the $100 for the 12 days.

If that assumption is correct, then she'll have y = 300x+100 dollars after x days.

Plug in x = 0 and you'll get y = 100. Plug in x = 12 and you'll end up with y = 3700. Therefore, the two points on this graph are (0,100) and (12,3700).

The only window that has y = 3700 in it is the interval -150 \le y \le 3700 while the other windows are too small. So only choice D is the answer here. In other words, you'll have "yes" on choice D, and "no" on everything else.

Solve the inequality and graph the solution. −0.8b + 2.3 ≥ 8.7
zlopas [31]

The solution of the inequality is -8 ≥ b, and the correct graph is the one in option D.

"number line with a closed circle plotted at negative eight and arrow pointing left."

<h3>How to solve the inequality?</h3>

Here we have the inequality:

-0.8*b + 2.3  ≥ 8.7

And we want to solve this, to do so, we need to isolate the variable b in one of the sides of the inequality.

-0.8*b + 2.3  ≥ 8.7

2.3 - 8.7 ≥ 0.8*b

-6.4  ≥ 0.8*b

-6.4/0.8  ≥ b

-8 ≥ b

So the solution is the set of all numbers equal to or smaller than -8, then the correct graph will be the one described by D.
