Weather balloons are filled with hydrogen and released at various sites to measure and transmit data such as air pressure and temperature. a weather balloon is filled with hydrogen at the rate of 0.1 ft3/s. initially, the balloon has 5 ft3 of hydrogen. find a linear function that models the volume of hydrogen in the balloon after t seconds.

Linear function that models the volume of hydrogen in the balloon after t seconds is V(t) = 5 + 0.1t

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial volume of hydrogen in the balloon = 5 ft³

Rate at which hydrogen is filling in the balloon = 0.1 ft³/s

Volume after 1 second = 5 + 0.1 x 1

Volume after 2 seconds = 5 + 0.1 x 2

Volume after 3 seconds = 5 + 0.1 x 3

Volume after 4 seconds = 5 + 0.1 x 4

Volume after 5 seconds = 5 + 0.1 x 5

Similarly

Volume after t seconds, V(t) = 5 + 0.1 x t = 5 + 0.1t

Linear function that models the volume of hydrogen in the balloon after t seconds is V(t) = 5 + 0.1t

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
