Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

The graph represents the atmospheric pressure in grams per square millimeter as a function of altitude in mi above sea level.

Which statements accurately reflect this relationship?

Which answers are correct. (There can be multiple answers)

A. The atmospheric pressure is less at an altitude of 27 miles than at an altitude of 4 miles.

B. As the altitude decreases, the atmospheric pressure decreases.

C. The atmospheric pressure is 8 grams per square millimeter at sea level.

D. The atmospheric pressure gets close to 8 grams per square millimeter as the altitude continues to decrease.

E. As the altitude decreases, the atmospheric pressure approaches 0 grams per square millimeter.

Answer 1

The atmospheric pressure is 8g/mm2 at sea level.

The atmospheric pressure gets close to 8g/mm2 as the altitude continues to decrease.

Answer 2

Options A, C, and D are correct

Explanation:

A: The graph shows inverse relation between the two variables: Atmospheric pressure and altitude. If one increases the other decreases. Thus, atmospheric pressure will be greater at a lower altitude and it will be lower at a higher altitude.

C: sea level is at altitude 0. On the graph, the point meeting altitude 0 on the curve is 8 grams/ square milimeter.

D: Altitude decreases on the left of X-axis, thus the cure towards left gets closer to 8 g/ square mm.
