Answer:

a. 8,953.5 seconds

b. 14,400 seconds (check note)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-4x

y=-35814 (negative because this is underwater)

-35814=-4x

8953.5

The model suggests it would take 8,953.5 seconds for DeepSea Challenger to reach the bottom (2.487083333 hours, or about 2 hours and 30 minutes).

y=4x

x=3600 (positive because the vessel is rising)

4(3600)

14400

It took 14,400 seconds for the DeepSea Challenger to ascend to the surface.

[also note: I'm not sure if the second question is asking for how many seconds it takes to ascend to the surface with reference to the 4 seconds in the previous question (which is how I answered part b) or if it's asking how many seconds 1 hour is, and in that case. the answer is 3,600 seconds. I hope this helps and sorry if it's unclear!]

Answer:

4 1/2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 an hour only used up 1/9 of her battery, 9, 1/2 would give us 9/2, which if you simplified it gets you 8 1/2 hours. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of

the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.

Let x be the amount of time in hours

Let y be the heoght of a candle in centimeters

The two points are then as (9,24.5) and (23,17.5).

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:passing\:through\:}\left(9,\:24.5\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(23,\:17.5\right)$
