<span>Those TWO pumps together work at a rate 100 gallons per minute.

You have basement dimensions, but to get volume as gallons, you need to know:
This is wrong: 231 cubic feet = 1 gallon

Know these: 231 cubic inches = 1 gallon, 12 inches = 1 foot

, cubic feet, the volume of water in the basement - which seems to be given in two sections.

You would use a uniform rates formula like RT=V for rate, time, volume.
You would use it as T=V/R. </span>

For a total of 14681.9 gallons. At 50 gallons per minute it will take 294 minutes which is about 5 hours and hence with 2 pumps about 2.5 hours.

Area of Big Rectangle                                     Area of Small Rectangle

A = L x w                                                           A = L x w

 = (25 + 2w)(10 + 2w)                                           = 25 x 10

 =   250 + 50w + 20w + 4w²                               = 250

       Big - Small  

74 = 250 + 70w + 4w² - 250

74 = 4w² + 70w

0 = 4w² + 70w - 74

   = 2(2w² + 35w - 37)

  = 2[2w² -2w  |  +37w - 37]

  = 2[2w(w - 1) |  +1(w - 1)]

  = 2(2w + 1)(w - 1)

0 = 2                                   0 = 2w + 1                                     0 = w - 1

FALSE so disregard          w = -1/2                                         w = 1

                                         NEGATIVE so disregard

A rectangular building with a square base is being designed to minimize heat loss. The building designers state that the volume
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

y = 4000/x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the building is expressed as;

V = x²y where;

x is the length and width of the base.

y is the height of the building

Given

Volume V = 4000m³

Substitute the given volume into the equation as shown;

4000 = x²y

Make y the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by x²

4000/x² = x²y/x²

4000/x² = y

Rearrange

y = 4000/x²

Hence equation for y, the height of the building, in terms of x, the length and width of the base is expressed as y = 4000/x²
