HELP PLZ It is your turn to wash the dishes. When you are finished, you begin to drain the water from the sink. The water's draining can be defined by the function V = -.75t + 10 where V is the volume of water in gallons and t is the time in minutes. What is the rate of change and would you interpret that?

Answer:

The rate of change is -0.75

Explanation:

For each unit of t the volume of water is decreasing by 0.75.

At t=13.333 the volume of water is 0. at t=0 the volume of water is 10

Hope this helps
