Answer:

  a) -900 L/min

  b) 63000 L

  c) v = -900t +63000

  d) 7200 L

Step-by-step explanation:

a) You are given two points on the curve of volume vs. time:

  (t, v) = (20, 45000) and (70, 0)

The rate of change is ...

  Δv/Δt = (0 -45000)/(70 -20) = -45000/50 = -900 . . . . liters per minute

__

b) In the first 20 minutes, the change in volume was ...

  (20 min)(-900 L/min) = -18000 L

So, the initial volume was ...

  initial volume -18000 = 45000

  initial volume = 63,000 . . . . liters

__

c) Since we have the slope and the intercept, we can write the equation in slope-intercept form:

  v = -900t +63000

__

d) Put the number in the equation and do the arithmetic.

When t=62, the amount remaining is ...

  v = -900(62) +63000 = -55800 +63000 = 7200

7200 L remain after 62 minutes.
