What is the best way to change the sentence below from active voice to passive voice? [ presenters give awards to the winners at the elaborate ceremony held every year] a. the awards are given at an elaborate ceremony held every year. b. the ceremony where someone gives the winner awards every year is elaborate. c. somebody gives winners an award at the elaborate ceremony held every year. d. an elaborate ceremony held every year is where presenters give out awards.

Passive voice is a formal construction that is made of a verb 'to be' and a verb in past participle.

The only option which follows this rule is sentence A, as it says 'are given'.

Sentence B and C are solely written in active voice as there is no verb 'to be' followed by a past participle verb in the sentence.

Sentence D would be a passive construction if it had the verb 'to be' (are) before 'held'; however, the main idea is awards; that is why sentence A is the correct construction as it speaks about them.

The answer would be A because the word 'given' is past tense

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x
