<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>

Y+5=2(x+1)<br><br><br> what is the slope for this Math
Stells [14]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.y=mx+bRewrite in slope-intercept form.Simplify 2(x+1).Apply the distributive property.

y+5=2x+2⋅1

multiply 2 by 1.

y+5=2x+2

y+5=2x+2

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation.Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.

y=2x+2−5

y=2x−3

the slope is the "m" so the slope is 2
