Archimedes Drained The Water In His Tub 625 Liters Of Water Were Drained Each Minute And The Tub Wascompletely Drained After 8 MinutesGraph The Relationship Bet class=

Answer :

Start by finding the initial amount of water there was in the tub.

If it took 8 minutes to drain and it loose 62.5 liters per minute we can find the inital amount.

[tex](\frac{62.5L}{\min})\cdot(8\min )=500L[/tex]

continue by drawing a line between points (0,500) and (8,0)

using this line we can see how the water is being drained in the y-axis over the time in the x-axis.
