A tank had 6 liters of water. The tank had a small hole in its base through which water leaked out at a constant rate. The tank was empty after 4 minutes. If y represents the number of liters of water in the tank and x represents the time in minutes, which graph best represents this situation?

Do you agree with this: We are looking for a graph with coordinates (0,6) which represents starting out with 6 gallons, and ending at (4,0). It comes from @Easyaspi314

first one :D

Directrix (directrix):

I was checking out to see if what the person wrote is in agreement with the details of this problem. So, yes. the correct option is the first one because time on the x axis is (4,0) and at time 0, there was 6 liters in the tank --> (0,6)

Directrix (directrix):

So, I agree with the first option.
