Each morning a gardener uses 24 3/4 gallons of water from a barrel. each afternoon, she adds 15 1/4 gallons of water to the barrel. by how much has the volume of water in the barrel changed after 5 days ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking into consideration that no significant leakages occur from storage and the reserve is used only for agriculture then, the amount consumed will be equivalent to

For 5 days, the quantity reduces by 9.5*5=47.5 gallons

Therefore, the barrel would have changed by

g

step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
