A tank is completely filled with water. A pump is used to drain the tank. The amount of
water remaining in the tank is given by the equation y=600-25x, where x is the number
of minutes since the pump started and y is the volume, in gallons, of water remaining
in the tank. In the equation, what are the meanings of the numbers 25 and 600?

Period is the time it takes for one “cycle” to complete. in the parent sine function, period is 2*pi since sin(0) = 0, sin(pi/2) = 1, sin(pi) = 0, sin(3pi/2) = -1, and sin(2pi) = 0. at that point, the sequence repeats itself. i’m not sure if your graph is similar to the sine function since you didn’t provide a picture, but you can find the period by looking at a graph.
