Question

Water runs from a hose into a bucket at a steady rate. The amount of water in the bucket for the time it is being filled is shown in the graph.

A line is graphed in the coordinate plane with the origin labeled “O”. The horizontal axis is labeled “time in seconds” and the numbers 0 through 13 are indicated. The vertical axis is labeled “water in gallons” and the numbers 0 through 10 are indicated. The line begins at the origin. It moves gradually upwards and to the right passing through the point 12 comma 5.


How many gallons of water were in the bucket after 1 second? Label the point on the graph that shows this information.

Answer 1

Given:

According to the question, water runs into a bucket from a hose at a steady rate and a graph is given to show the amount of water in the bucket for the time.

To find:

We need to find the number of gallons of water were in the bucket after 1 second.

Solution:

If we observe the graph carefully,

• At time = 1 second, the amount of water is $=0.42$ (Approximately).
• At time = 2 seconds, the amount of water is $=0.84$ (Approximately).
• At time = 3 seconds, the amount of water is $=1.26$ (Approximately).
• At time = 4 seconds, the amount of water is $=1.68$ (Approximately).
• At time = 5 seconds, the amount of water is $=2.1$ (Approximately).
• At time = 6 seconds, the amount of water is $=2.52$ (Approximately).
• At time = 7 seconds, the amount of water is $=2.94$ (Approximately).
• At time = 8 seconds, the amount of water is $=3.36$ (Approximately).
• At time = 9 seconds, the amount of water is $=3.78$ (Approximately).
• At time = 10 seconds, the amount of water is $=4.2$ (Approximately).
• At time = 11 seconds, the amount of water is $=4.62$ (Approximately).
• At time = 12 seconds, the amount of water is $=5$.

So, after 1 second, the amount of water in the bucket is $=0.84$ gallons.
