Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming the tank starts empty. It means that in 1 hour the tank has half that water, or 3600 gallons. And the good thing of lines passing through 0.0 is that the value at 1 IS the slope we need. ie 3600.
At this point it's easy to find that if in 2 hours it filled 1/10th of the tank, in 20 hours the tank will be full.

Answer:
a.) f(x) = -⅙(x+3)²+6
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum value, our vertex, is at point (-3,6).
We can insert this value into the vertex form of a quadratic function and then solve for a as follows...
a equals -1/6... We can input this into the original equation we used...
f(x) = -1/6(x+3)^2+6
Good luck on the bellwork ;)
