Let x, represent the number of minutes and y represents the number of gallons of water in the tub, then the ordered pairs (2, 30) and (5, 12) satisfies the equation.

Therefore the equation is given by: (y - 30)/(x - 2) = (12 - 30)/(5 - 2)
(y - 30)/(x - 2) = -18/3 x = -6
y - 30 =  -6(x - 2) = -6x + 12
y = -6x + 42

Required equation is y + 6x = 42.
