Answer:

450 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

w = 45000 - 100t

Required

Determine how long it'll take to empty the pool

Being empty means there's no water in the pool.

So, we have to set w to 0 to get the value of t

i.e w = 0

Substitute 0 for w in w = 45000 - 100t

0 = 45000 - 100t

Collect Like Terms

100t = 45000

Divide through by 100.

t = 450

Hence, it'll take 450 minutes to empty the pool

Identify the type of triangle by looking at the sum of the angle
Blizzard [7]
I believe it is an obtuse triangle. Because one triangle is so big there isn’t any 90 degrees and therefor not a right. It might be acute but it had an obtuse side.
