Answer:
We want to describe how to graph a linear equation.
Explanation:
The given equation is:
y = -4x - 1
a) To graph it, we need to find two points that belong to the line, then we graph the points, and then we connect them with a line.
To get the points, we just need to evaluate the function in two different values of x.
for x = 0
y = -4*0 - 1 = -1
So we have the point (0, -1)
for x = 1
y = -4*1 - 1 = -5
So we have the point (1, - 5)
Now we just need to find these two points and connect them with a line, the graph can be seen below.
b) To check if the graph is correct we can see two things:
in y = -4*x - 1
The y-intercept is -1, this means that the graph should intersect the y-axis at y = -1
The slope is -4, this means that for each unit increase on x, we should see that the y-value decreases by 4.
Checking those two things we can see if our graph is correct or not.

Answer:
0.08 ft/min
Explanation:
To get the speed at witch the water raising at a given point we need to know the area it needs to fill at that point in the trough (the longitudinal section), which is given by the height at that point.
So we need to get the lenght of the sides for a height of 1 foot. Given the geometry of the trough, one side is the depth <em>d</em> and the other (lets call it <em>l</em>) is given by:
since the difference between the upper and lower base is the increase in the base and we are only at halft the height.
Now we can calculate the longitudinal section <em>A</em> at that point:
And the raising speed <em>v </em>of the water is given by:
where <em>q</em> is the water flow (1 cubic foot per minute).
