To determine how long it will take for the water tank to be emptied based on the graph you mentioned, I would need to see the graph. However, since I can't see images, I can help you make an estimation based on the information provided.
If the graph shows a declining line representing the water level, check where this line intersects with the x-axis. The x-axis usually represents time in hours, while the y-axis represents the water level.
From your options:
- 12 hours
- 35 hours
- Negative 3 hours (not valid for this scenario)
- 11.7 hours
If the graph trends downward and shows that it will reach 0 gallons at approximately either 12 hours or 11.7 hours, then either answer could potentially be correct.
Based on typical tank emptying scenarios, if the graph seems to show a steady decline reaching zero gallons around that time, choose the closest estimate.
Without more context, I would suggest selecting "12 hours" or "11.7 hours" based on visual representation. If the tank reaches empty around those times, select accordingly.
