Answer:
(x+8)²
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 16x + 64 = (x+8)²
(x+8)² = (x+8)(x+8) = x*x + x*8 + 8*x + 8*8 = x² + 8x + 8x + 64
= x² + 16x + 64
Answer:
<em>The water is leaking at the rate of 0.0625 gal/min.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rate of change</u>
The rate of change (ROC) is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how fast one variable changes in time.
The container holds 8 gallons of water and is leaking at a constant rate to be calculated later.
When 48 minutes have passed, the container has 5 gallons of water left. This means it has leaked 8 gallons - 5 gallons = 3 gallons.
Calculating the rate at which it's leaking:

r = 0.0625 gal/min
The water is leaking at the rate of 0.0625 gal/min.
3 sig figs in the final answer since the denominator has 3 sig figs. So the answer would be 4.05
The answer would end up being 0.01323
