An oil tank is being filled at a constant rate.

In 0 minute, the depth of oil in the tank is 3, : (0,3)

In 10 minute, the depth of oil in the tank is 5, : ( 10, 5 )

In 15 minutes, the depth of oil in the tank is 6, : ( 15, 6 )

Since, the oil is filled at the constant rate, so the equation form by the depth of oil with the time is linear equation.

The general expression for the linear equation is :

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

Let x express the time and y express the depth of oil

Substitute any two set of value of time and depth from the table : ( 0, 3) & ( 10, 5 )

\begin{gathered} y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1) \\ y-3=\frac{5-3}{10-0}(x-0) \\ y-3=\frac{2}{10}x \\ y-3=\frac{1}{5}x \\ 5(y-3)=x \\ 5y-15=x \\ x-5y+15=0 \end{gathered}

Since, we need to depth of the oil after, 45 minutes,

Substitute x = 45 in the equation :

\begin{gathered} x-5y+15=0 \\ 45-5y+15=0 \\ 60-5y=0 \\ 5y=60 \\ y=\frac{60}{5} \\ y=12 \end{gathered}

as, y represent the depth of the oil

so, depth of the oil is 12 ft in 45 minutes

45 minutes after filling, the depth of the oil is 12 ft

Answer : 45 minutes after filling, the depth of the oil is 12 ft

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of years needed for the company to process a certain amount of milk, we use the given function which relates the number of years, x, and the gallons of milk, y. We simply substitute the number of gallons to y and solve for x.  

y = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

630 = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

Solving for x, we will have

x = 4.8866 years or approximately 5 years

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day
