There are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot. If residents of the apartment building are using the water from the tower at an average rate of 56 gallons per minute, determine how long it will take to drain the entire tower.

Time it will take to drain the entire tower = 2.8minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the volume of the tower was not indicated.

Let's consider the following question:

If there are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot, and the volume of the tower is around 36000in cubed. Residents of the apartment building are using the water from the tower at an average rate of 56 gallons per minute, determine how long it will take to drain the entire tower.

Solution:

Volume = 36000in³

Conversion of in³ to ft³

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

12 inch = 1 ft

1 ft³ = 1ft × 1ft × 1ft

= 12 in x 12 in x 12 in = 1728 in³

36000in³ × [(1ft³)/(1728 in³) = (36000/1728)ft³

= 20.833ft³

Volume = 20.833ft³

There are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot

In 20.833ft³ = 20.833ft³× (7.48 gallons/1ft³)

= 20.833× 7.48gallons

Volume = 155.83 gallons

The rate of usage = 56 gallons per minute

The rate of usage for 155.83 gallons = 155.83 gallons × (1min/56gallons)

= (155.83/56)minute

= 2.8minutes

Time it will take to drain the entire tower = 2.8minutes

i get you, what you should do is think of the positive things that would come out of it. it will make yours parents proud and raise your grade. you should always try and if you can't focus tell the teacher.

the formula of a slope:

we have the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3). substitute:
