Answer:

<u>The rate the swimming pool is filled is 9 gallons of water per minute</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's review the information provided by Ronald to us to help him to find the answer to the question:

Time it takes to fill the swimming pool = 8 minutes

Amount of water the swimming pool can hold = 72 gallons

2. At what rate does the swimming pool fill, in gallons per minute?

Rate the swimming pool is filled = Amount of water the swimming pool can hold /Time it takes to fill the swimming pool

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Rate the swimming pool is filled = 72/8 = 9 gallons of water per minute

Answer:

y = - 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 8)

m = \frac{-8-1}{5-2} = \frac{-9}{3} = - 3 , thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, 1) , then

1 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = 1 + 6 = 7

y = - 3x + 7 ← equation of line
