A watering can dispenses water at a rate of 0.40 gallon per minute. The original volume of water in the can was 10 gallons. Which set of ordered pairs shows the volume of water in the can in gallons (y) as a function of time in minutes (x) from the first minute after the can starts dispensing water? (1 point)

{(10, 1), (9.60, 2), (9.20, 3)}

{(1, 10), (2, 9.60), (3, 9.20)}

{(9.60, 1), (9.20, 2), (8.80, 3)}

{(1, 9.60), (2, 9.20), (3, 8.80)}
