Question 1081114: 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 500 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. Answer by math_helper(2461) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The water in the pond is the initial amount at T=0, plus the rate * time:
W = 500 + 35T
where: W = number of liters in pond
T = time in minutes,
