Which customary unit would be best to measure the capacity of water in a dolphin tank at an aquarium?

Since a dolphin tank would be large, the capacity of water in the tank would be measured in gallons. When thinking about liquid volume, remember that a fluid ounce is about the size of a dose of cough syrup, a pint is about the size of a large drink, and think of a gallon as a 1 gallon plastic milk jug.

We want to find a linear equation that models the given situation.

The solution is p = $0.0001*q - $23

The general linear equation is:

p = m*q + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) then the slope can be written as:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Here we have the two points:

price = $9, boxes = 320,000

price = $8.50, boxes = 270,000

We can rewrite these as:

(320,000 , $9)

(270,000 , $8.50)

Then the slope of the line will be:

$m = \frac{\$ 9 - \$ 8.50}{320,000 - 270,000} = \$ 0.00001$

Then the line is something like:

p = $0.0001*q + c

To find the value of c we can use one of the two given points, I will use the first one, (320,000 , $9).

Replacing that in our equation we get:

$9 = $0.0001*320,000 + c

$9 - $0.0001*320,000 = c = -$23

Then the linear equation is:

p = $0.0001*q - $23

10 + 2 = 12 12 − 2 = 10 What are these operations called? Transverse operations Reverse operations Divided operations Inverse op

jeka57 [31]

Inverse operations are operations that undo each other.
In this case, 10 + 2 = 12, and 12 - 2 = 10
A multiplication example could be 4 x 2 = 8, and 8 ÷ 2 = 4

Answer is inverse operations.
