Pumps are used to empty water from two tanks, tank P and tank Q. Tank P begins with 65 gallons of water and empties at a rate of 6.5 gallons per minute. The amount of water in tank Q is
represented by the equation y = 63.5 - 5.252, where x is the number of minutes the pump has been emptying the
tank.
Which statement is true?
Tank P empties at a faster rate than tank Q and had a lesser starting amount than tank Q.
B Tank P empties at a faster rate than tank Q and had a greater starting amount than tank Q.
Tank P empties at a slower rate than tank Q and had a lesser starting amount than tank Q.
DTank P empties at a slower rate than tank Q and had a greater starting amount than tank Q.
