In certain deep parts of oceans, the pressure of sea water,
P
,
in pounds per square foot, at a depth of
d
feet below the surface, is given by the following equation:

P=12+8d/9



If a scientific team uses special equipment to measures the pressure under water and finds it to be 164 pounds per square foot, at what depth is the team making their measurements?

P = 12 + 8d/9 = 104.
12 + 8d/9 = 104,
8d/9 = 92,
8d = 828,
d = 103.5 Ft.
