The height in inches of the water in the tank is 1.2 inches

how to find the height

To find the height of the water in the tank after 5 minutes, we need to consider the volume of water that has flowed into the tank.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given by:

= π r² h

r = diameter /2 = 180 / 2 = 90

After 5 minutes, the volume of water added

= 6000 * 5

= 30000

The new height is calculated using the volume formula

30000 = π 90² h

h = 30000 / (π * 90²)

h = 1.18 inches

h = 1.2 inches
