Answer:
Time it will take to drain the entire tower = 2.8minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete as the volume of the tower was not indicated.
Let's consider the following question:
If there are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot, and the volume of the tower is around 36000in cubed. Residents of the apartment building are using the water from the tower at an average rate of 56 gallons per minute, determine how long it will take to drain the entire tower.
Solution:
Volume = 36000in³
Conversion of in³ to ft³
1 inch = 0.0833 feet
12 inch = 1 ft
1 ft³ = 1ft × 1ft × 1ft
= 12 in x 12 in x 12 in = 1728 in³
36000in³ × [(1ft³)/(1728 in³) = (36000/1728)ft³
= 20.833ft³
Volume = 20.833ft³
There are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot
In 20.833ft³ = 20.833ft³× (7.48 gallons/1ft³)
= 20.833× 7.48gallons
Volume = 155.83 gallons
The rate of usage = 56 gallons per minute
The rate of usage for 155.83 gallons = 155.83 gallons × (1min/56gallons)
= (155.83/56)minute
= 2.8minutes
Time it will take to drain the entire tower = 2.8minutes
First of all, a positive average rate of change means that the function is increasing, so the answer can only be A->B or B->C.
The average rate of change is defined as

i.e. as the ratio between the vertical and horizontal gain.
In order to go from point A to point B, you gain 1 unit horizontally and 5 units vertically. So, the average rate of change is 5/1=5.
In order to go from point B to point C, you gain 1 unit horizontally and 3 units vertically. So, the average rate of change is 3/1=3.
Answer:
Tom was speeding.
Step-by-step explanation:
The driving speed of Tom = 20.3 meters per second.
Speed allowed in the zone = 45 miles per hour zone.
Since the unit of speed allowed is given in miles per hour but the speed of tom is given in meters per second. So, first, we have to convert the meter per second into mile per hour then we can compare and find that Tom is speeding or not.
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
1 hour = 3600 second
Now convert 20.3 into mile per hour.
20.3 meters per second. = (20.3 / 1609.34)*3600 = 45.40981 mile per hour.
Since Tom’s speed is more than the allowed speed so he is speeding.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
When two straight lines intersect, four angles are formed. The angles that are directly opposite of each other are equal. Since the angles are equal set the values equal to each other and solve for x.
5x - 5 = 2x + 10
5x - 5 - 2x = 2x + 10 - 2x
3x - 5 = 10
3x - 5 + 5 = 10 + 5
3x = 15
3x/3 = 15/3
x = 5
