5.3 minutes.  
First, let's calculate the volume of the tank. That will be the area of the base multiplied by it's length. And since it's base is a circle, the area is pi*r^2. So:
 V = l*pi*r^2
 V = 3.5 * pi * (2.2/2)^2
 V = 3.5 * pi * (1.1)^2
 V = 3.5 * pi * 1.21
 V = 4.235 * pi
 V = 13.30464489
 
 So the tank has a volume of about 13.3 ft^3. Now simply divide that volume
by the rate of incoming fluid. So
 13.3 / 2.5 = 5.32 
 Rounding to 2 significant figures gives a time of 5.3 minutes.

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The sum of first five term of GP is 19607.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A geometric progression with 7 as the first term and 7 as the common ration.

a, ar, ar^2,...\\a  = 7\\r = 7

7, 7^2, 7^3, 7^4...

Sum of n terms in a geometric progression:

S_n = \displaystyle\frac{a(r^n - 1)}{(r-1)}

For sum of five terms, we put n= 5, a = 7, r = 7

S_5 = \displaystyle\frac{7(7^5 - 1)}{(7-1)}\\\\S_5 = 19607

The sum of first five term of GP is 19607.

Verification:

2801\times 7 = 19607

Thus, the sum is equal to product of 2801 and 7.
