Absolute value of any number is always positive because it represent distance and distance will always positive.
To place chimney at  least 30 feet , the distance along the width of the roof  (x) will be  x = 17.5 feet or x = 2.5 feet.
Since, The height of the roof is described by the function f(x)=−4/3|x−10| + 40
Since, minimum height is 30 feet.
So , substitute f(x)=30 in above expression.
                  30=−4/3|x−10| + 40
                    4/3|x−10| = 10
                       |x−10|=30/4
                       |x−10| = 7.5
Taking positive case,
                            x−10 = 7.5
                            x = 17.5 feet
Taking negative case,
                           x−10 = - 7.5
                           x = 10 - 7.5
                           x = 2.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Mirror 1: D_1 = 8''
- Mirror 2: D_2 = 6"
Find:
Compare the light gathering power of an 8" primary mirror with a 6" primary mirror. The 8" mirror has how much light gathering power?
Solution:
- The light gathering power of a mirror (LGP) is proportional to the Area of the objects:
                                            LGP ∝ A
- Whereas, Area is proportional to the squared of the diameter i.e an area of a circle:
                                            A ∝ D^2
- Hence,                              LGP ∝ D^2
- Now compare the two diameters given:
                                            LGP_1 ∝ (D_1)^2
                                            LGP ∝ (D_2)^2
- Take a ratio of both:
                            LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (D_1)^2 / (D_2)^2
- Plug in the values:
                                LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (8)^2 / (6)^2
- Compute:             LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ 16/9 ≅ 1.778 times more

60 divide dos by 15 is 4, so it takes 4 minutes for each person to empty it. 
25 x 4 = 100, so the answer would be 100 minutes.
