2. the water in nate's swimming pool is

currently 72 inches deep. however, nate

noticed a hole in the liner that is causing

water to leak out of the pool. the depth of

the water is decreasing at a rate of 2 inches

per hour. which equation relates the depth

(d) of the water in inches after h hours?

Respuesta :

slope intercept form will help you find the function of the line :) [ y = mx + b ]

at time = 0 (y-intercept) the pool is 72in deep

the pool loses 2 inches of water every 1 hour. or -2/1

so your equation is y = -2x + 72

Good Luck!
