Question

Water is leaking out of a tank at a steady rate the tank started with 75 gallons after 15 hours the tank has 33 gallons of water

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation will be "$y=-2.8 x+75$".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Started with,

= 75 gallons

After 15 hrs,

Tank has,

= 33 gallons

Now,

The slope will be:

=  $\frac{33-75}{15}$

=  $\frac{-42}{15}$

=  $-2.8$

Thus,

The equation is "$y=-2.5x+75$".
