i only need part b for now

JustSaiyan:

If the water is leaking at a rate of 270 ml, per minute, divide 10,450 by 270. So in roughly 38 minutes, the tank will be completely empty.

Vocaloid:

that's not what part B is asking though if we let x = minutes and f(x) = water left after x minutes we get f(x) = 10450 - 270x
