Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = slope or several other words.
it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.
it is represented by the ratio
(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)
when going from one point on the line to another.
in our case, when going from A to B we have
x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).
y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).
so, the gradient or slope is
-11/-2k = 3
11/2k = 3
11 = 3×2k = 6k
k = 11/6
A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)
B = (11/6, -3)
We are given that the titanic is found 3,797 m below sea
level. This is simply equivalent to 3.797 km or 3.8 km when rounded off to one
decimal.
We should take note that the letter k in km means kilo and
a kilo is equivalent to 1000. So this means that for 1 km there is exactly 1000
m. So to convert, simply multiply a value with unit m with this conversion
factor. Conversion factor = 1 km / 1000 m
Depth of titanic = 3,797 m (1 km / 1000 m)
<span>Depth of titanic = 3.797 km = 3.8 km</span>
The correct answer would be C
Has infinitely many solutions.
