The salinity of the ocean changes with latitude and with depth. Suppose the salinity to depths of 1000 meters at a certain latitude is modeled by the function in attached screenshot. The input x is the depth in meters, and the output f(x) is in grams of salt per kilogram of seawater. Approximate analytically the depth where the salinity equals 31.
