Which of the following is the best description of bacons chain of reasoning in this passage

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

the purpose is to inform because for some reason they really want you to know about it.

i say that the right answer is: three personal subject pronouns. that’s because you will see “she” two times, referring to the librarian, and “they” one time, referring to the books. personal subject pronouns are used to replace common nouns or proper names.

the only possessive noun it’s present on the first sentence, when the speaker refers to “his” father.
