## Problem: Fish Tank Water DrainageLaura needs to clean her 150-gallon fish tank. The water in the fish tank is draining at a rate of 8 gallons per hour.### Table of Water Amount Over Time| Time, in hours | Amount of water in the fish tank, in gallons ||----------------|----------------------------------------------|| 0 | 150 || 1 | 158 || 2 | 166 || 3 | 174 || 4 | 182 |### Analysisb. **Variables:** - **Independent variable:** Time, in hours - **Dependent variable:** Amount of waterc. **Patterns in the Data:** - The amount of water increases by 8 gallons each hour.d. **Linear Function:** - This data can be represented by a linear function. (Yes)e. **Point (0, 150) Explanation:** - Represents the initial amount of water at 0 hours, which is 150 gallons. (hours to gallons)f. **Note:** - For additional calculations, such as determining how much water is left after a specific number of hours, follow the linear pattern established in the table.
