Step-by-step explanation:
1. convert the equation to its y = mx + b format. remember m is the slope (rise/run) and b is the y-intercept.
2. equation given: x + 2y = -6
bring x over to other side
3. now its looks like 2y = -6 - x
to get y by itself we need to divide by 2
4. now equation looks like y = -6/2 -x/2
we can reduce it so the final equation is
5. y = -1/2x - 3
this is in y=mx+b format. now its much easier to graph
6. the slope is -1/2 and the y-intercept is -3. put a point at (0,-3) and use the slope (-1/2) rise over run to get each point.
7. you move to the left because its negative
i think you answer would be b "omg all the b's xD" I MIGHT BE WRONG THO and if i am in suuuper sorry :/
If you want rough hours, it would be 6. Round the 10:52 to 11, and the 4:53 to 5, its 6 hours. You want specifics though, it would be exactly 6 hours and 1 minute.

Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, it is already mentioned that the water tank holds = 24,000 gallons
In the given question it is also mentioned that the need is to find the time required to use 2/3 of the total water that the tank holds.
So the need is to find the amount of water that equals 2/3 of the total water in the tank.
Then
Quantity of water that needed to be used = [24000 * (2/3)] gallons
= 16000 gallons
In the problem it is also mentioned that the average rate of consumption per day is 650 gallons.
So
650 gallons of water used in = 24 hours
16000 gallons of water will be used in = [(24/650) *16000] hours
= 590.77 hours
So the time required to consume 2/3 of the total water in the tank is 590.77 hours.
