I have the answer can someone please see if I did this right.... Suppose we have partially filled water tank and water begins entering the tank. The amount of water, in gallons in the tank is given by w(t), where t is the number of minutes after water began entering the tank. The graph above is of w'(t), the rate at which water is entering the tank in gallons/minute. Find and interpret

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{20}w'(t)dt\]

that is what is interpreting

For the first 6 minutes the hole in the dyke was getting bigger and so the water was coming in at an increasing rate. Then for the next 8 minutes, the hole stayed the same size and so the water kept entering at a constant rate. Then for the last 6 minutes the hole was getting bigger again and so the water was entering at a still faster rate.
