Answer:

Equation: y = 8x + 56

After 5 minutes, the volume of the water was 96 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Use y = mx + b to create the linear equation, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Since the water flows in at 8 gallons per minute, 8 will be the slope. The variable x will represent the number of minutes.

There are already 56 gallons of water in the tank, so b will be 56.

Plug in these values into the equation:

y = 8x + 56

So, the linear equation is y = 8x + 56

Using this, plug in 5 as x to find the volume of the water in the sink after 5 minutes:

y = 8x + 56

y = 8(5) + 56

y = 40 + 56

y = 96

So, after 5 minutes, the volume of the water was 96 gallons

‼️ IM BEING TIMED PLEASE HELP‼️<br><br> Which is the graph of fix) = 4(3)?
dexar [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After graphing the function f(x) = 4(\frac{1}{2})^{x}  we can see that the correct graph is the middle one in the picture. This is because with an x-input of 1 the value of 1/2 will stay the same and when multiplied by 4 it would give us a y-coordinate of 2 as seen in the middle graph. The y-coordinate keeps decreasing exponentially by half for every increase in the x-coordinate. A zoomed-in version of the graph can be seen in the attached picture below for a better understanding.
