Answer:
f(x)=2000-8x
Step-by-step explanation:
2000 is initial amount that gets subtracted
8x is the amount of gallons being siphoned out, where x is t, or minutes.

Let's analyze Hannah's work, step-by-step, to see if she made any mistakes. </span>In Step 1, Hannah wrote

<span> as the sum of two separate derivatives </span>

<span>using the </span><span>sum rule.
</span>
This step is perfectly fine. In Step 2,

was kept as it is, and

was rewritten as

using the constant rule.Indeed, according to the constant rule, the derivative of a constant number is equal to zero.
This step is perfectly fine. In Step 3,

was rewritten as

supposedly using the constant multiple rule.
The problem is that according to the constant multiple rule,

should be rewritten as

and not as

.

Therefore, Hannah made a mistake in this step.</span>
<em /><em>PURPLE MARBLES=P
WHITE MARBLES=W
</em>First, write out an equation showing the number of purple marbles.
P=5W-6
Then, write out the main equation.
W+P=96
W+5W-6=96
Add 6 to both sides.
W+5W=102
6W=102
Divide both sides by 6
W=17
Now that we know there are 17 white marbles, we can go back to the equation about how many purple marbles there are.
P=5W-6
Plug in the value for W, which is 17.
P=5(17)-6
P=85-6
P=79
To make sure your answer is correct, check your work by plugging in the values for P+W=96.
79+17=96
Answer: There are 79 purple marbles.
