Question 1154114: Select ALL the correct answers.
Let f(t) be the amount of garbage, in tons, produced by a city, and let t be the time in years after 2000.
Which statements are true for the given function?
The dependent variable is f(t).
When f(4) = 1,458.6, the 4 represents "the year 2004," and the 1,458.6 represents "1,458.6 tons of garbage produced."
When f(12) = 2,155, the 12 represents "12 tons of garbage produced," and the 2,155 represents "the year 2155."
The independent variable is t.
The independent variable is f(t).
The dependent variable is t.
When f(2) = 1,323, the 2 represents "the year 2002," and the 1,323 represents "1,323 tons of garbage produced."

Question 1154980: Can you help me with this problem I'm stuck. A mechanic has a 55-gallon drum filled with a solution that she uses to clean tools. She estimates that she uses two gallons of this solution each week. Which of the equations below best represents the amount of the solution (S) as a function of the number of weeks (w)?
S(w) = 2w
S(w) = 2w + 55
S(w) = 2w - 55
S(w) = 55 - 2w

Question 1156003: Please help me with this related rates question
Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the equation PV = C, where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 700 cm3, the pressure is 100 kPa, and the pressure is increasing at a rate of 40 kPa/min. At what rate is the volume decreasing at this instant?
