Answer:

To drain the water tower it will take 36 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A 72,000 water tower is being drained, and in an hour 2000 gallons are drained.

Now, to calculate the hours it would take to drain total 72,000 gallons of water, we should divide the gallons of water drained in one hour by total gallons of water in the tower.

Gallons of total water in the tower ÷ Gallons of water drained per hour

72000\div 2000

=\ 36

Therefore, to drain the water tower it will take 36 hours.

Answer:

Total surface area of the prism =145.32 Square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is a rectangular prism with the given dimensions of :

length(L)= 10.3 cm

Width(W)=2.2 cm

Height(H)=4 cm

Total surface area of the rectangular prism is:

= 2(L*W+W*H+H*L)\\\\=2((10.3*2.2)+(2.2*4)+(4*10.3))\\\\=2(22.66+8.8+41.2)\\\\=2(72.66)\\\\=145.32cm^2\\\\

Total surface area of the prism is 145.32 Square centimeters

Please can someone answer this.

Answer:

  •  x = -4, x = 0, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x is a factor of all terms, so x=0 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 1 and 5.)

The sum of coefficients is 0, so x=1 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 3 and 4.)

Reversing the sign of the odd-degree terms gives signs of -++, so there is one sign change, hence one negative real root (by Descartes' rule of signs). This confirms choice 2 as the answer.

___

Of course, your graphing calculator can answer this almost as quickly.
