Owners of a recreation area are filling a small pond with water. They are adding water at a rate of 25 liters per minute. There are 400 liters in the pond to start. Let W represent the total amount of water in the pond (in liters), and let T represent the total number of minutes that water has been added. Write an equation relating W to T. Then use this equation to find the total amount of water after 11 minutes. Equation: ? Total amount of water after 11 minutes: liters
