Vanessa has 40 gallons of water in her new fish pond in her backyard and wants to add more water. Her pond can hold a maximum of 256 gallons. Her garden hose can add 48 gallons of water in 2 minutes.

Her garden hose fills up the fish pond in her backyard at a rate of                      24 gallons/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

her pond will be full with the above rate very soon

the equation is y=24x-256+40

d

step-by-step explanation:

by observation, we can see that the the graph is simply the graph of y = |x| that has been shifted 4 units downwards and 3 units to the left.

we can recognize in choice d :

y = | x + 3 |   - 4 (rewriting in general form)

y = | x - (- 3) |   - 4

the "-4 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 4 units in the negative y direction

the "-3 " term means   that the graph has been shifted by 3 units in the negative x direction

this matches our observation of the graph described above.
