mr. davis is brewing a pot of coffee. his coffeepot has old coffee sitting in it, which he first pours down the drain. he sets the empty pot on the coffeemaker, adds ground coffee and water, and turns the coffeemaker on. after a couple of minutes, the pot begins to fill with hot, fresh coffee. which graph could show the amount of coffee in the coffeepot over time?
Answer
# Answer:
4
# Explanation:
## Step1: Analyze initial state
The coffee - pot has old coffee which is poured out, so the initial volume of coffee is non - zero and then becomes zero.
## Step2: Analyze brewing process
After setting the empty pot, adding ingredients and turning on the coffee - maker, there is a delay before the coffee starts to fill. Then the volume of coffee in the pot increases steadily until it is full. Graph 4 shows an initial non - zero value dropping to zero, a horizontal line (delay) and then a steady increase in volume, which matches the described process.
