Answer:

Hideki is draining a 45-gallon aquarium at a rate of 15 gallons per minute. Let's solve for the initial value of the linear function that represents thissituation.

=> 45 gallon aquarium at rate of 15 gallons per minute.

=> 45 gallon / 15 gallon = 3 minutes.

Therefore with the rate of 15 gallons per minutes, Hideki will be able to finish the 45 gallon aquarium in 3 minutes.
