Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Calculate the volume of the water in the tank.</u>
- Area of the base of the tank: B = 7 ft × 4 ft = 28 ft²
- Height of the tank: H = 9 in = 9 in × 1 ft / 12 in = 0.75 ft
- Volume of the tank: V = area of the base × height = B × H = 28 ft² × 0.75 ft = 21 ft³.
<u>2) Calculate the weight of 21 ft³ of water.</u>
Since this is not a chemistry question but a math question, I will not use the fomula of density but set a proportion with one unknown:
- 62.4 lb / 1 ft³ = x / 21 ft³
Solve for x:
- x = 21 ft³ × 64 lb / ft³ = 1,310.4 lb.
So, rounding to the next integer, the water in the tank weighs 1,310 pounds, when it is full.
The rule of 70 is used to estimate the time it will take an initial quantity to drop to half its value:
70 : (the decreasing rate) = x ( months )
The decreasing rate = 1 - 0.97 = 0.03 = 3%
x = 70 : 3 = 23.33 = 23 1/3 = 23 months and 10 days.
Verify:
20 * 0.97^(23.33) = 9.83 ≈ 10
