Question

is a Saturday morning, and Jeremy has discovered he has a leak coming from the water heater in his attic. Since plumbers charge extra to come out on weekends, Jeremy is planning to use buckets to catch the dripping water. He places a bucket under the drip and steps outside to walk the dog. In 1 hour, the bucket is of the way full. (hint: y = bucket filled, x = time in hours)

Answer 1

the equation of the problem is

`y=x`

because 1 bucket is full per hour
