Problema Solution

the elevation E, in meters, above sea level at which the boiling point of a certain liquid is t degrees Celsius is given by the function shown below 119.5? 120?

E(t)=1100(120-t)+500(120-t2 the 2 is a small one

At what Elevation is the Boiling point 119.5?

E(119.5)=blank meters

the elevation E, in meters, above sea level at which the boiling point of a certain liquid is t degrees Celsius is given by the function shown below 119.5? 120?

E(t)=1100(120-t)+500(120-t)^2

At what Elevation is the Boiling point 119.5?

E(119.5)=blank meters

E(119.5) = 1100(120-119.5) + 500(120-119.5)^2

  = 1100(.5) + 500(.25)

  = 550 + 125

  = 675

E(120) = 0
