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

How do you find the LCM???
pishuonlain [190]
If you know the LCM then you divide it by the other number.
If you don't already know it: is 8 a factor of 9 or do they have equal factors? No.
Is 9 a factor of 8 or do they have equal factors? No.
The easy way: multiply 8 by 9 to get LCM :)

This table represents a function plot the points to represent the function as a graph
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure N 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure N 1

we have the ordered pairs

(-4,9),(-1,3),(0,1),(2,-3)

Using a graphing tool

Plot the given ordered pairs in the coordinate plane

Remember that

In a ordered pair (x,y), the first coordinate is the location of the point in the x-axis and the second coordinate is the location of the point in the y-axis

see the attached figure

The graph represent a line

<em>Find the equation of the line</em>

<em>Find the slope</em>

take two points

(0,1),(2,-3)\\m=(-3-1)/(2-0)=-2

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=-2\\b=1

substitute

y=-2x+1
