Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
At time zero the level was 7 gallons and at time 3 min, the level was 5 gallons.
<u>Take two points:</u>
<u>Find the rate of change:</u>
This is a 2 gallons per 3 minutes
<u>Tank holds 10 gallons, it was emptied by 3 gallons and it took:</u>
- 3 : (2/3) = 3* 3/2 = 4.5 minutes
8hrs = 480mins
6hrs = 360 mins
472/480 = 0.983...
0.983... x 360 = 354
D) 354
2x + 3y = 1
y = 3x + 15
Get the same variables on each side
3y = 1 - 2x
y = 15 + 3x
Multiply both sides of that second equation by 3 so we can subtract.
3y = 1 - 2x
3y = 45 + 9x
Subtract the equations from each other.
0 = -44 - 11x
Solve.
44 = -11x
-4 = x
Use x in an earlier equation to find y.
y = 3x + 15
y = 3 * -4 +15
y = -12 + 15
y = 3
x = -4, y = 3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given statement can be represented as:


Given
Represent this as an equation

Convert variation to equation

Where k is a constant of variation.
Substitute 


Solve for k


To get the equation, we have:

Substitute 2 for k
