Question

Ann pumped 49 gallons of water out of her pool. This was done over a period of 7 minutes at a constant rate. What was the change in the amount of water in the pool each minute?

Answer 1

Given:

Amount of water pumped out = 49 gallons

Number of minutes = 7 minutes

Let's find the change in amount of water in the pool each minute.

To find the change in the amount of water in the ppol each minute, we have:

`(49)/(7)\frac{\text{gallons}}{\text{minute}}=7\text{ }(gallons)/(\min ute)`

Therefore, the change in the amount of water in the pool each minute is 7 gallons per minute.
