Yolanda is filling her bathtub. The table shows the number of gallons of water in the bathtub at different times since she started filling it. Time (minutes) Water (gallons) 1 16.50 1.5 24.75 2 33 Answer the following questions based on the information in the table. Part A Find the constant of proportionality (in gallons per minute) using the values in the first row of the table. (already done, 16.5 gallons per minute, only need the following questions) Part B Now find the constant of proportionality (in gallons per minute) for the second and third rows of the table. Show your work. Part C Is the constant of proportionality in gallons per minute the same for every row? What does this say about the relationship of the amount of water to time? Part D Using the constant of proportionality, determine how much water will be in the bathtub after 2.5 minutes. Part E If the bathtub holds a total of 46.2 gallons, how many minutes would it take to fill the entire tub? Write an equation in one variable to help you solve the problem. The variable represents the unknown time in minutes.
