Question

After 2 hours, there are 1,400 mL of fluids remaining in a patient’s IV. The fluids drip at a rate of 300 mL per hour. Let x be the time passed, in hours, and y be the amount of fluid left in the IV, in mL. Write a linear function that models this scenario.

Answer 1

The slope of the line is -300
The y-intercept other the one is 2,000
The linear function is f(x)=-300x+2,000

Answer 2

First one-300
second one 2,000
last one f(x)=-300x+2,000
