Question

A water tank holds 944 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 5 gallons per week. A second water tank holds 1,180 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 9 gallons per week. After how many weeks will the amout of water in the two tanks be the same ?

Answer 1

I know horribel picture, but you can ser that the tank holding 944 gallons is f(x) and the tank holding 1180 is g(x) tjen they have a variable wich is -5x and -9x as the rate the water is leaking. And you can see in A that the x coordinate is 59 wich means it takes 59 weeks befare they are the same. And the y coordinate is 649 wich means that there are then 649 gallons in both after those 59 weeks. (Sorry for bad english)
