Question

A pipe is draining water from a tank. The table below shows the time in minutes and the number of gallons remaining in the tank. 5 mins drained 300 gallons, 10 mins drained 260 gallons, 15 mins drained 220 gallons, 20 mins drained 180 gallons, and 25 mins drained 140 gallons. Based off the pattern/rate, how much water would be drained in a half an hour?

Answer 1

3,600 gallon in a hour

Answer 2

Answer: 3,600 gallons in an hour and a half

Step-by-step explanation:

Because every 5 minutes it drained 40 gallons so you’d have to do 40 times 90 because there is 90 minutes in a half an hour and that gives u 3,600 gallons
