The summer has ended and it’s time to drain the swimming pool. 20 minutes after pulling the plug, there is still 45 000L of water in the pool. The pool is empty after 70 minutes. Calculate the rate that the water is draining out of the pool. (Hint: remember this line is sloping down to the right) b) Calculate how much water was in the pool initially (at time 0). I think it was 80 000 c) Write an equation for this relationship. d) Use your equation to calculate how much water is in the pool at 62 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

At t = 20 min, V = 45,000 L.

At t = 70 min, V = 0 L.

a) The rate is the slope:

m = ΔV/Δt

m = (0 L − 45,000 L) / (70 min − 20 min)

m = -900 L/min

b) Using the slope to find V when t = 0 min:

m = ΔV/Δt

-900 L/min = (V − 0 L) / (0 min − 70 min)

V = 63,000 L

c) Use slope-intercept form to find the equation.

V = -900t + 63,000

d) At t = 62 min:

V = -900(62) + 63,000

V = 7200

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
