<h2>Answer is "They save 44 million gallons of water every year"</h2><h2 />

Explanation - If all 10,000 people in the town flush the water-saving toilet eight times a day, they will save 120,000 gallons in a day. If the savings is multiplied by 365—the number of days in a year—they will save 43.8 million gallons each year.

After installing the device, the toilets will use 1.5 fewer gallons per flush.


So each year, the town will save

10,000 (people) * 365 (days in a year) * 8 (flushes per person a day) * 1.5 (gallons per flush saved)

= 10,000*365*8*1.5= 438,000,000 (gallons a year)


Answer: <span>The town will save about 44 million gallons of water each year</span>

If f(x)=square root 4x+9+2, which inequality can be used to find the domain of f(x)?
jenyasd209 [6]

we have

f(x)=\sqrt{4x+9} +2

we know that

The radicand must be greater than or equal to zero

so

4x+9 \geq0 \\ 4x\geq -9 \\x\geq -\frac{9}{4} \\ x\geq -2.25

the domain is is the interval--------> [-2.25,∞)

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

4x+9 \geq0
