Step 1
We are given two pools, Pool A and Pool B, which are being filled with water. There is a graph that shows the peak water in gallons over time in minutes for both pools. We are to interpret the slopes of the lines representing each pool on the graph. Show more…

The graph shows the number of gallons of water $y$ in a 100-gallon tank after $x$ minutes have elapsed. (Check your book to see graph) (a) Is water entering or leaving the tank? How much water is in the tank after 3 minutes? (b) Find the $x-$ and $y$ -intercepts. Interpret their meanings. (c) Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line. Interpret the slope. (d) Estimate the $x$ -coordinate of the point $(x, 50)$ that lies on the line.

Using the concept of slope, match each description with the graph that best illustrates it. Assume time is scaled on the horizontal axes, and height, speed, or distance from the origin (as the case may be) is scaled on the vertical axis. (GRAPH CAN'T COPY) I steadily swam laps at the pool yesterday.
