Select the choice which best identifies the given passage from "the cask of amontillado." "we had passed through long walls of piled skeletons, with casks and puncheons intermingling, into the inmost recesses of the catacombs."
a. irony/sarcasm
b. setting
c. characterization
d. tragic resolution

B) Setting.

Explanation: The setting of a story or a text is the place and time where the story takes place, it can also be the context of the story (political, historical, cultural, etc). From the given options, the one that best identifies the given passage from "The Cask of Amontillado" is the corresponding to option B: Setting, because it is describing a place (specifically, the catacombs) "We had passed through long walls of piled skeletons, with casks and puncheons intermingling..."

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
