The temperature of water in a certain lake on a day in October can be determined by using the model y = 15.2 minus 0.537 x where x is the number of feet down from the surface of the lake and y is the Celsius temperature of the water at that depth. Based on this model, how deep in the lake is the water 9 degrees? (Round to the nearest foot.) a. 12 c. 67 b. 45 d. 30

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.

guess at question:

a vertical line intersects the graph of g(x,y) = 0 at two points. what conclusion follows about the function f(x) implicitly defined by g(x,f(x)) = 0?

the domain of f(x) cannot include the x coordinate of any such vertical line.

informally, f(x) is not a function, and

g(x,y)=0 cannot be solved for y uniquely.

the relation r = {(x,y) such that g(x,y) = 0} is a function if

for all (a,b) ∊ r and (c,d) ∊ r, a=c implies b=d.
