Measuring the speed of sound in the ocean is an important part of marine research. One application is the study of climate change. The speed of sound depends on the temperature, salinity, and depth below the surface. For a fixed temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and salinity of 35 parts per thousand, the speed of sound is a function of the depth. At the surface, the speed of sound is 1534 meters per second. For each increase in depth by 1 kilometer, the speed of sound increases by 17 meters per second. Identify the initial value of the linear function that gives the speed of sound in terms of depth. Initial value = ?

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

answer: you need the equation in the question so i can answer it

what is the rest of the question? ?

you should talk someone who owns the website about it. you did not deserve to have all that hard work and time taken away. id watch videos of little puppies to cool you down, and maybe some nacho cheese doritos.
