Linear model problem! please help. Thank you?

problem: A water tank already contains 55 gallons of water when Mike begins to fill it. Water flows into the tank at a rate of 8 gallons per minute. The relationship between the total water in the tank (y) and the time (x) that takes Mike to add water to the tank is linear.
