Answer:
19,000.00
Step-by-step explanation:
6. 40 minutes (15/3 = 5 minutes/mile) - 5*8 = 40 min
7. 15,840 ft / 5 = 3.168 ft
8a - 4 = 25 + 6 (a - 8)
(distribute the 6)
8a - 4 = 25 + 6a - 48
(combine like terms 25 - 48)
8a - 4 = 6a - 23
( subtract 6a from both sides)
2a - 4 = -23
(add 4 to both sides)
2a = -19
(divide both sides by 2)
a = - 9.5
////CHECK/////
8 (-9.5) - 4 = 25 + 6 ( -9.5 -8)
(plug each side into a calculator)
-80 = -80
FINAL ANSWER:
a = -9.5
Height of the water increasing is at rate of 
<h3>How to solve?</h3>
With related rates, we need a function to relate the 2 variables, in this case it is clearly volume and height. The formula is:

There is radius in the formula, but in this problem, radius is constant so it is not a variable. We can substitute the value in:

Since the rate in this problem is time related, we need to implicitly differentiate wrt (with respect to) time:

In the problem, we are given
So we need to substitute this in:

Hence, Height of the water increasing is at rate of
