From inspecting the graph, you can identify the y-intercept and the slope of the line shown.
The y-intercept is 200 gallons.
The slope is
75-200
m = ------------- = -12.5 gallons/minute
10 - 0
Thus, y = 200 gallons - [12.5 gallons/minute ]t
To answer the 2nd question, let t = 12 minutes and calculate y(12).
To determine how long it wld take to empty the tank, set the above formula equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for t.
Answer: 182 gallons
find 30% of 260 by multiplying 260 by 30%
260 x .3 = 78
30% of 260 = 78
Subtract 78 from 260 to get original amount
260 - 78 = 182
Original is 182 gallons
ps. this is an actual impossible question because you need to know the original amount to find what 30% of it is. What i found was a 30% decrease of 260 not a 30% increase of the original. With that being said I think this is what you want?
The answer is -40 because if you get rid of the negative sign and add instead of subtract... you get 40 so its like adding in the opposite direction.
