Question

An aspiring engineer wants to build a timer by taking a glass cylinder, filling it with water, suspending it in the air, and cutting a small hole in the bottom. He notes that at 1 p.m., the cylinder is 80% full, and at 2 p.m., it is 65% full. Draw a graph expressing this and interpret the meaning of the y-intercept.

Answer 1

I can't draw a graph for u, but the y-intercept would express the initial amount of water that was in the glass cylinder, basically 100%
