How did it take escher time 18 liters of water were drained is it a) 1/4 min b) 1/2 min c) 1min or d) 1/3min?

A) 1/4 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the equation for the graph:

y = mx + b

Find the slope using two random points (0, 360) and (5, 0)

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (0-360) / (5-0)

m = -360/5

m = -72

b is 360, the y-intercept.

Substitute m= -72 and b=360 into slope-intercept form.

y = -72x + 360

x represents time and y represents the total amount of water at the time.

We are looking for when only 18 liters were drained.

360 - 18 = 342  <= Total amount of water when 18 liters are drained

Substitute 342 for y in the equation and isolate x.

342 = -72x + 360

-18 = -72x

x = 18/72

x = 1/4

Therefore, it will take 1/4 of a minute to drain 18 liters.

x+y = 29, 5x + 2y = 100
