Question

A water tank is leaking such that for each of the next 5 hours, the amount of water in the tank will be 2 gallons less than at the end of the previous hour. What type of relationship most appropriately models this situation? A. linear increase B. exponential growth C. linear decrease D. exponential decay

Answer 1

C. Linear decrease

Explanation:

I can't really show a graph but I will try to explain

The water is leaking at a constant rate, meaning its not regaining it water (its only leaking). So if u were to graph this it would be a linear decrease

( That was a Terrible explanation but the answer is right lol)
