Owners of a recreation area are filling a small pond with water.
They are adding water at a rate of 35 liters per minute.
There are 700 liters in the pond to start.
Let W represent the amount of water in the pond (in liters), and let T represent
the number of minutes that water has been added.
Write an equation relating W to T , and then graph your equation using the axes
below.
:
A simple equation
Water = time pumping at 35 l/min + initial amt of 700l
:
W = 35t + 700
:
W on the y axis and t on the x axis
:
Plot using two coordinates x=10 and x=50
x | y
---------
10 | 1050
50 | 2450
:
Should look like this:
