hw #3-5 Tables and Graphs and Equation, OH MY!
hw #3-5: Due Tues Nov 30
pg 132 #1-9
Please see the newly updated MATHCHAMBER for UNIT 3!!
In problem #2, you could see that you were losing .75 gallons of water per minute. The variables used in the table were g and t (for time).
If we re-phrase the problem, for every minute that passes, .75 gallons leak. So that means that the total number of gallons leaked is equal to 3/4 of the minutes that pass. So:
g = .75t
is your equation.
Use t as your horizontal axis for the graph. Scale the graph to accommodate 60 minutes worth of a leaky pipe.
Is this our hw changed from page 132 #'s 1-9?
