Answer:
- equation: d(h) = 0.25|h -1600| -400
- depth is 250 ft at 1000 ft and 2200 ft from the west edge
Step-by-step explanation:
The crater shape can be modeled by an absolute value function with a slope of 0.25. The vertex of the function will not be at (0, 0) but will be at (1600, -400). The usual methods of translating functions apply. Horizontal displacement of the vertex is subtracted from the independent variable; vertical displacement is added to the function value.
d(h) = 0.25×|h -1600| -400
We know the horizontal displacement is 1600 ft, because the depth changes at a rate of 1/4 foot for each horizontal foot. A depth change of 400 feet will require 1600 horizontal feet to accomplish.
__
At a depth of 250 ft, the distance from the west edge can be found from ...
-250 = 0.25|h -1600| -400
150 = 0.25|h -1600| . . . . . . . . add 400
600 = |h -1600| . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4
This resolves to two equations:
- -600 = h -1600 ⇒ h = 1000
- 600 = h -1600 ⇒ h = 2200
The depth is 250 ft at distances of 1000 ft and 2200 ft from the west edge.

<em>Comment on the equation</em>
We have chosen to make depths be negative numbers. If you want the equation to give positive numbers for depth, multiply it by -1:
d = 400 -0.25×|h -1600|
Answer:
Option c (Upper tailed) is the correct choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The average attendance is:
= 74,900
We will have to test:
⇒ 
or,

Verses,
⇒ 
or,

The other given alternatives aren't connected to the given scenario. So the above is the correct one.
System 1: The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 5)
System 2: The solution is 
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>
2x + 3y = 7 ------ eqn 1
-3x - 5y = -13 --------- eqn 2
We can solve by elimination method
Multiply eqn 1 by 3
6x + 9y = 21 ------ eqn 3
Multiply eqn 2 by 2
-6x - 10y = -26 ------- eqn 4
Add eqn 3 and eqn 4
6x + 9y -6x - 10y = 21 - 26
-y = -5
y = 5
Substitute y = 5 in eqn 1
2x + 3(5) = 7
2x + 15 = 7
2x = -8
x = -4
Thus the solution is (x, y) = (-4, 5)
<h3><em><u>
Second system of equation is:</u></em></h3>
8 - y = 3x ------ eqn 1
2y + 3x = 5 ----- eqn 2
We can solve by susbtitution method
From given,
y = 8 - 3x ----- eqn 3
Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2
2(8 - 3x) + 3x = 5
16 - 6x + 3x = 5
3x = 16 - 5
3x = 11

Substitute the above value of x in eqn 3
y = 8 - 3x

Thus the solution is
