Answer:

166\frac{2}{3}\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the average depth of the resulting layers of ash and rock

we know that

To find out the average depth, divide the cubic kilometers of molten rock by the area where all the ejected material fell.

so

\frac{100\ km^3}{600\ km^2}=\frac{1}{6}\ km

Convert to meters

Remember that

1\ km=1,000\ m

so

\frac{1}{6}\ km=\frac{1}{6}(1,000)=\frac{1,000}{6}=\frac{500}{3}\ m

Convert to mixed number

\frac{500}{3}\ m=\frac{498}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=166\frac{2}{3}\ m

Why is the answer A ?<br>why can't D work?
attashe74 [19]
The negative in a = -2 for answer A represents a reflection over the x-axis.
What does the cosine graph usually look like?.....It goes through point (0,1) and decreases.
The graph shown goes through point (0,-2). Since there are no vertical or horizontal shifts, the graph has an amplitude of 2 and reflects over the x-axis.

a=2 for answer D does not represent the reflection over the x-axis.
