Question

Can someone please help with this question

Answer 1

Option B.

Explanation:

The given equation of trend line is

`y=(4)/(5)x`

where, x is time in minutes and y is amount of water in gallons.

It is given that the rate (gallons per minute) continues approximately.

We need to find the amount of water flow from the hose in 45 minutes.

Substitute x=45 in the given equation.

`y=(4)/(5)(45)`

`y=4* 9`

`y=36`

It means 36 gallons of water from hose in 45 minutes.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
