Question

as a submarine descends into the deep ocean, the pressure it must withstand increases. At an altitude of - 700 metres, the pressure is 50 atm, and an altitude of -900 meters, the pressure is 70 atm. For every 10 meters the submarine descends, the pressure it faces increases by n, where n is a constant. What is the value of n

Answer 1

Answer:

1 atm for every 10 meters

Explanation:

find the slope

(-700, 50) Point 1

(-900, 70) Point 2

(70-50)/ (-900- (-700))

20/ -200 = - 1/10

y = -1/10 (x) - 20

It increase by 1 atm for every 10 meter
