A large container holds 5 gallons of water. It begins leaking at a constant rate. After 20 minutes, the container has 3 gallons
of water left. At what rate is the water leaking? Express your answer as a positive value.
1 answer:
The container will take 25 minutes to go from full to empty.
Explanation:
In 15 minutes, the container has lost 3 gallons of water (
5
−
2
=
3
).
Since the leak is at a constant rate, we can determine that every five minutes the container loses one gallon.
So for the container to lose the full 5 gallons will take 25 minutes (
5
×
5
=
25
)

Answer:
<h2> The fourth</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex of f is (-1, -4) so its range is limited to y≥-4
|x+1| is always ≥0 therefore -|x+1| is always ≤0 {4 is insignificant to this - slope doesn't mean in range} so its range is limited to y≤0
