Since, we are given
straight line
so, we can find equation of straight line
Let's assume
y is the amount of water that inflows
x is the time in minutes
We can select any two points
(0,0) and (2,500)
Firstly , we will find slope
[tex] m=\frac{500-0}{2-0} [/tex]
[tex] m=250 [/tex]
now, we can use point slope form of line
[tex] y-y_1=m(x-x_1) [/tex]
we can plug values
and we get
[tex] y-0=250(x-0) [/tex]
[tex] y=250x [/tex]..............Answer
