Answer:

C(t)=5000 -10t

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many examples in the real world of relationships that are functions.

For example, imagine a tank full of water with a capacity of 5000 liters, this tank has a small hole, by which 10 liters of water are lost every hour.

If we call C the amount of water in the tank as a function of time, then we can write the following equation for C:

$C(t)=C_{0}-at\\$

Where:

C (t): Amount of water in the tank as a function of time

$C_{0}$ : Initial amount of water in the tank at time t = 0

a: amount of water lost per hour

t: time in hours

Then the equation is:

$C(t)=5000 -10t$

The graph of C (t) is a line of negative slope. This relation is a function since for each value of t there is a single value of C.

Its domain is the set of all positive real numbers t between [0,500]

Because the time count starts at t = 0 when the tank is full and ends at t = 500 when empty

Its Range is the set of all positive real numbers C between [0,5000] Because the amount of water in the tank can never be less than zero or greater than 5000Litres
