Open Response Instructions:
Part 2 of our assessment is two longer questions broken into 3 parts each. 

You are required to show all necessary work/calculations in the provided space before typing in your final answer. Even if your final answer is incorrect, you will receive partial credit for the correct work.

Question 1)
It is Saturday morning and Jeremy has discovered he has a leak coming from the water heater in his attic. Since plumbers charge extra to come out on weekends, Jeremy is planning to use buckets to catch the dripping water until Monday. He places a bucket under the drip and steps outside to walk the dog. 
In half an hour, the bucket is \frac{1}{5} of the way full. 

1a)
What is the rate at which the water is leaking in buckets per hour?

1b)
Write an equation that represents the relationship between the number of buckets filled (y) and the number of hours (x).

1c)
What is the longest that Jeremy can be away from the house before the bucket will overflow? Explain how you know.

"The longest Jeremy can be away... I know this because..."

Question 2) 
Over the break, your aunt and uncle ask you to help them cement the foundation of their newly purchased land and give you a top-view blueprint of the area and the proposed layout. 

A small legend on the corner states that 4 inches on the blueprint corresponds to an actual length of 52 feet.
