In 2012, James Cameron descended to the bottom of Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench; the deepest point in the ocean. The vessel he rode in was called DeepSea Challenger. Challenger Deep is 35,814 feet deep at its lowest point

DeepSea Challenger’s descent was a change in depth of (-4) feet per second. We can use the equation y = -4x to model this relationship, where y is the depth and x is the time in seconds that have passed.
How many seconds does this model suggest it would take for DeepSea Challenger to reach the bottom?

y

Bonus points:
A submarine is descending to examine the seafloor 3,100 feet below the surface. It takes the submarine 2 hours to make this descent. Write an equation to represent the relationship between the submarine's elevation and time. (y is the elevation and x is the hour)

(i really need ) read the story problem, and then answer the questions that follow. gordon works for a graphic design firm and is creating a label for a food truck vendor. the vendor specializes in finger food and wants to sell food in right conical containers so that they are easy for people to hold. to complete his label, gordon needs to collect several different measurements to ensure that the label he designs will fit the surface of the container. gordon has been told that the containers have a diameter of 4 inches and a height of 6 inches. part a: find the slant height of the cone. the slant height is the distance from the apex, or tip, to the base along the cone’s lateral surface. show your work. part b: find the measure of the angle formed between the base of the cone and a line segment that represents the slant height. part c: imagine two line segments where each represents a slant height of the cone. the segments are on opposite sides of the cone and meet at the apex. find the measurement of the angle formed between the line segments.
