From inspecting the graph, you can identify the y-intercept and the slope of the line shown.
The y-intercept is 200 gallons.
The slope is
75-200
m = ------------- = -12.5 gallons/minute
10 - 0
Thus, y = 200 gallons - [12.5 gallons/minute ]t
To answer the 2nd question, let t = 12 minutes and calculate y(12).
To determine how long it wld take to empty the tank, set the above formula equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for t.
Answer:
8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The longer leg extends upward from y = -3 to y = 5, so its length is 8 units.
45 minutes is equal to 1.5 times 30:
1.5*30=45
so she will also read 22*1.5 pages, which is 22+11=33
so she will read 33 pages
