Solve the Problem S\mathrm { S } Of Ocean Water at a Given Depth

Question 281

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-Suppose that the salinity S\mathrm { S } of ocean water at a given depth d\mathrm { d } is modeled by the equation S(d) =29.9+1.4log(d+1) \mathrm { S } ( \mathrm { d } ) = 29.9 + 1.4 \log ( \mathrm { d } + 1 ) , where S\mathrm { S } is measured in grams salt per kilogram water and d\mathrm { d } is measured in meters. What is the salinity when the depth is 998 m998 \mathrm {~m} ? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.


A) 88.29 gsalt/kg88.29 \mathrm {~g} \mathrm { salt } / \mathrm { kg } water
B) 91.09 gsalt/kg91.09 \mathrm {~g} \mathrm { salt } / \mathrm { kg } water
C) 34.10 g34.10 \mathrm {~g} salt /kg/ \mathrm { kg } water
D) 25.70 gsalt/kg- 25.70 \mathrm {~g} \mathrm { salt } / \mathrm { kg } water
