Answer:

#3.) The initial value of  16 gal at  x = 5 minutes means that 16 gallons of water was present 5 minutes after the barrel started leaking.

#4.) Find how many minutes until the barrel is empty of water.

Let y = 0,  to solve for time x.

0 = (-2/5)*x + 18

(2/5)*x = 18

x = (5/2)* 18 = 5*9 = 45 minutes

Up to and after 45 minutes, the barrel is empty of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

#2.)  

minutes:      5, 10, 15, 20

water(gal):  16, 14, 12, 10

Find slope:    slope m = (14 - 16)/(10 - 5) = -2/5

y - 10 = (-2/5)*(x - 20)

y - 10 = (-2/5)* x  + 8

y = (-2/5)*x + 18

rate of change slope means that for every minute  2/5 gallons of water is lost

#3.) The initial value of  16 gal at  x = 5 minutes means that 16 gallons of water was present 5 minutes after the barrel started leaking.

#4.) Find how many minutes until the barrel is empty of water.

Let y = 0,  to solve for time x.

0 = (-2/5)*x + 18

(2/5)*x = 18

x = (5/2)* 18 = 5*9 = 45 minutes
