Answer:

The time taken to drain water to be half full is 5 hours 55 min .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total quantity of water pool = 8520 gallons

The rate of water drain = 12 gallons per min

The time taken to drain water to be half full = t min

<u>Now, According to question</u>

Time of water drain = \dfrac{\textrm total quantity of water in pool}{\textrm rate of water drain}

Or, time = \dfrac{\textrm 8520 gallons}{\textrm 12 gallons per min}

Or, time = 710 minutes

So, The time taken to full empty the pool = 710 minutes

Again, time taken to ran water to half full = \dfrac{710}{2}

Or, t = 355 minutes

So, time taken to drain water to be half full = t = 355 min = 5 hours 55 minutes

Hence, The time taken to drain water to be half full is 5 hours 55 min . Answer

Here, Function: h(t)= -16t² + 70t + 40

So, put the value of t, (time at which you want to calculate the height)

h(1) = -16(1)² + 70(1) + 40
h(1) = -16 + 110
h(1) = 94

Now, h(2) = -16(2)² + 70(2) + 40
h(2) = -64 + 180
h(2) = 116

h(3) = -16(3)² + 70(3) + 40
h(3) = -144 + 250
h(3) = 106

In short, Your height depends on time, and at each time it would be different, can be expressed by the coordinates on a Graph: (1, 94) (2, 116) (3, 106)

Hope this helps!
