Olivia walks up to a tank of water that can hold up to 50 gallons. When it is active, a drain empties water form the tank at a constant rate. When Olivia first sees the tank, it contains 38 gallons of water. Four minutes later, the tank contains 18 gallons of water. a.) At what rate is the amount of water in the tank changing? Use a signed number and include the unit of measurement in your answer.

b.) How many more minutes will it take for the tank to drain completely?

c.) How many minutes before Olivia arrived was the water tank completely full?

C

Step-by-step explanation:

I got the answer C because if the estimated value of the tank is 50 and it gets drained it will only have 18 gallon in it

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
