At time t= 0, water begins to drip out of a pipe into an empty bucket. After 108 minutes, there are 12 inches of water in the bucket. Write a linear function rule to model how many inches of water w are in the bucket after any number of minutes t.? the linear function rule is w = ?

step-by-step explanation:

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4

a is 8.b is 10.c is 10.5. d is -.5

step-by-step explanation:

just minus the smallest number from the biggest.
