Answer:

<h2> 52 chickens</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:'

given

we are told that the total number of animals is 169

the ratio of horses to chickens= 9:4

total ratio= 13

Required:

number of chickens

Applying part to all principle, let the number of chickens be x

4/13=x/169

cross multiply

4*169=13*x

divide both sides by 13

x=4*169/13

x=676/13

x=52

There are 52 chickens

The function that the naval engineer uses related P (pressure) and d (depth of ocean).

<em>Is there any restriction on the domain ( d: depth of the ocean)? Yes!</em>

The domain would be from 0 (at sea level or 0 depth) until the depth of the ocean (which is not infinite). Hence, we can write:

$0\leq d\leq DepthOfSeaFloor$

Choice D is the correct one.
