Question

Answer detailed please

Answer 1

container A

Explanation:

In Container A, we can plot the points (0,60) adn (2, 35)

The slope is :

`m_A = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\\\= (35-60)/(2-0) \\\\= (-25)/(2)\\ \\m_A = -12.5\\`

For container B, the slope is:

`m_B = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\\\= (32-54)/(3-1) \\\\= (-22)/(2)\\ \\m_B = -11\\`

The negative sign of the slope indicates the direction of the slope

`|m_A| = 12.5\\\\|m_B| = 11`

12.5 > 11

The slope of container A is steeper than container B

Therefore, the water is draining out of container A at a faster rate than container B
