Xia is charging her laptop. She records the battery charge for the first 30 minutes after she plugs it in to get an idea of when it will be completely charged. The table above shows the results. If y is the percent battery charge on Xia's laptop, which linear equation represents the correct relationship between y and x ?

A

`y = 1.5 x +19`

B

`y =2x+14`

C

`y =2.5x +9`

D

`y =10 x + 34`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The equatin tells you that the relationship is linear, so start by finding the rate of change (the slop, m) using any two pairs of values from the table and the slope formula. Next substitute the slope and any pair of values from the talbe , such as `(10, 34),` into the equation `y = mx + b` and solve for b. Finally, use the values of m ans b to write the function.
`m = (y _(2) -y_(1))/(x _(2) -x_(1))=(64-34)/(30-10)=1.5`
You can stop right there! Only (A) has a slope of `1.5,` so it mus be the correct answer. For the record :
`34=10(1.5)+b`
`34=15+b`
` 19=b`

When an atom or an ion is missing from its nomal lattice site a lattice vacanecy (Schottky defect) is created. In stoichmeteric ionic crystals, a vacancy of one ion has to be accompanied by the vacancy of the oppositely charge ion in order to maintain electrical neutrality. In a Frenkel defect an ion leaves its position in the lattice and occupies an interstitial void. This id the Frenkel defect commonly found along with the Schottky defects and interstitial. In pure alkali halides. Frenked defects are not found since the ions cannot get into the interstitial sites. Frenkel defects are found in silver halides because of the small size of the Ag^(+) ion. Unike Schottky defects, Frenkel defect do not change the density of the solids. in certain ionic solids (e.g., AgBr) both schottky and Frenkel defect occur.
