Answer needed asap | marking brainlist | read this passage from the way to rainy mountain.

in the autumn of 1874, the kiowas were driven southward toward the staked plains. columns of troops were converging on all sides, and they were bone-weary and afraid.

which choice best conveys the connotative meaning of the word driven in this context?

herded like animals
moved as a group
escorted like guests
encouraged to move

herded like animals

Explanation:

because it says they were converging on all sides and we're bone-weary and afraid just like animals

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
