The water level in a glass decreases 0.4 cm each hour due to evaporation. At the beginning of the experiment, the water level is 12.6 cm. Let x represent time, in hours, elapsed since the beginning of the experiment and let y represent the water level, in centimeters.

Part A

Construct a linear function, using x and y from above, that determines the water level at a given time, in hours, after the experiment begins.

Question 2
Part B

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
