The number of gallons of water in the tank at t=10 is

... W(10) = 160,000 -10(8000 -10) = 80100

The number of gallons of water in the tank at t=10.5 is

... W(10.5) = 160,000 -10.5(8000 -10.5) = 76110.25

The rate of change over the interval is

... (W(10.5) - W(10))/(10.5 - 10) = (76110.25 - 80100)/(0.5) = -7979.5

The average rate of change in the number of gallons of water in the tank over the interval is -7979.5 gal/min.

The sign is negative, so the amount of water is decreasing.
