Question

MATH EASY POINTS: the volume of water y (in cubic meters) that flows over niagara falls during peak daytime tourist hours in x minutes can be approximated by the equation y=168,000x. Approximately how many cubic meters of water flow over the falls in one hour

Answer 1

10,080,000 cubic meters is the answer.

Explanation:

For every minute (x), 168,000 cubic meters (y) of water are added. 1 hour has 60 minutes, so 60 x 168,000. That gives 10,080,000.
