I'd appreciate it if anyone helped! :)

Every week, Nina used 5 L of water from her rain barrel to water her plants. She did this until her rain barrel was empty. When Nina first started watering, her rain barrel contained 75 L of water.

Which sketch represents this situation? (Please don't mind the filled bubble at the bottom right corner.)

Answer:

Graph given on the top right side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nina used 5 L of water from her rain barrel to water her plants every week.

She did this until her rain barrel was empty.

So barrel will be empty in the time = [tex]\frac{75}{5}=15[/tex] weeks.

Nina started watering when rain barrel contained 75L of water.

We draw a graph with water remaining on y-axis and weeks to get the barrel empty on x-axis.

Line representing this process will start from a point (0, 75) on y-axis and will end at x-axis at the point (15, 0).

Therefore, graph given on the top right side of the options is the correct answer.

The correct graph is the graph at the top right of the image given.

  • This is about interpreting graphs.

From the graph, we see that the water remaining is represented on the y-axis while weeks it will take for the barrel to get empty is represented on the x-axis.

  • When she started watering, her rain barrel contained 75 L of water. This means that amount remaining when she started at 0 weeks was 75 L.  

This means that, the first coordinate will be; (0, 75). 0 on the x-axis and 75 on y-axis.

  • We are told that every week she used 5 L of water from her barrel.

  • Since continued using 5 litres every week until the barrel was empty, it means that,

Number of weeks it took for the barrel to be empty = 75/5 = 15 weeks

  • This means when, the water is finished, y-axis will be 0 L while x-axis will be 15 weeks and the coordinate here is (0, 15)

  • Thus, the correct graph is the graph at the top right of the image given.
