Make the internet a fraction and then multiply them
Given:
The volume of water in a tank is modeled by the function
where, x is the number of minutes after the faucet filling the tank is turned on.
To find:
The y-intercept and what does it represent in this context?
Solution:
We have,
Substituting x=0, we get
Therefore, the y-intercept is 2 and it represents the volume of water in a tank before the faucet filling the tank is turned on.
Step-by-step explanation:
slope= <u>y</u><u>²</u><u>-</u><u>y</u><u>¹</u>
x²-x¹
<u>-12--6</u>
5-2
-12+6
