Answer:

210 minutes

Explanation:

First, we want to find out how many meters cubed of water there is, which is the volume.

The volume of this prism would be, the average of the two sides multiplied by 2 and 1.

1.5+0.6 = 2.1

2.1/2 = 1.05

1.05*2=2.1

2.1*1=2.1

2.1 meters is the volume but because it goes down by 30 cm, we have to convert 2.1 to cm.

2.1 * 100 = 210 cm.

Every 30 minutes, it goes down by 30 cm so:

210/30 = 7

210 minutes until it's empty
