A researcher is studying the conditions under which commercially raised shrimp reach maximum weight gain. Two water temperatures (25 degrees, 35 degrees) and four water salinity levels (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%) are selected for study. Shrimp are raised in containers with specified water temperatures and salinity levels. The weight gain of the shrimp in each container is recorded after a six-week study period. a) Identify the response variable. b) Identify the explanatory variables in the experiment. c) List the treatment for the experiment.

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

step-by-step explanation:

y=3n + 1

step-by-step explanation:

this is wrong because it says the second number is one less and i added one instead
