A mining company is mining silver. The relationship between the mass of the material mined in metric tons and the number of carts required to transport the material is given by the function V(n) = 0.5n. Additionally, the relationship between the amount of silver and the material mined is given by the function G(V) = 0.00001V.

Which function can be used to determine the mass of silver in metric tons as a function of the number of carts required to transport the materials out of the mine?
A)G(V(n))
B)V(G(n))
C)n(G(V))
D)n(V(G))

Answer:

G(V(n))

Explanation:

  • As V(n)=0.5n

Where V is carts and n is material

  • So vRn

And

  • G(v)=0.00001V

Where G is silver found and v is material

  • GRv

On combininf

  • GRv =>(G,v)€R
  • VRn=>(v,n)€R

So as per transitive property

  • GRn=>( G,n)€R

R is relation

G is related to n

So G will stay outside and the relationship become GoV(n)
