A. 4 gallons per minute B. 0.25 gallons per minute C. 25 minutes per gallon D. 4 minutes per gallon

Mehek (mehek14):

ok so find the slope

Mehek (mehek14):

\(\Huge \dfrac{10}{2.5}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya

Mehek (mehek14):

so divide that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait do i devide

Mehek (mehek14):

the fraction i gave you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

Mehek (mehek14):

so would the rate be gallons/min or min/gal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g/m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe

Mehek (mehek14):

correct so it would be A
