Final answer:
The volume of the container is 1.125 minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve this step-by-step:
Initial water level: We know that Jayden has removed 0.4ft of water, so the current water level remaining is 4ft - 0.4ft = 3.6ft.
Target water level: We want to find the time when there is less than 1ft of water left, meaning we want to reach a water level of 0.6ft (less than 1ft).
Rate of water removal: Jayden removes water at a rate of 3.2ft per minute.
Time calculation: To find the time taken to reach 0.6ft water level, we need to divide the remaining water level (3.6ft) by the removal rate (3.2ft/min):
Time (m) = Remaining water level / Removal rate
m = (3.6ft) / (3.2ft/min)
m = 1.125 minutes
Therefore, it will take 1.125 minutes for Jayden to have less than 1ft of water left in the container.
The question is: "Jayden is emptying the cubic container shown. He has removed 0.4ft of water and empties it at a rate of 3.2ft per mintue. After how many mintues,m, will there be less that 1 ft of water left in the container"
