In this question, you are given the width( 20 miles), the length(28 miles) and the height( 1 inch). You are asked to count the rain water volume which was going with formula length x width x height. But the unit asked is ft, so you need to convert them all. The calculation would be:
Water volume= length x width x height
Water volume= 20 miles x 5280ft/miles x 28 miles x 5280ft/miles x 1inch x 1ft/12inch
Water volume = 1300992000 cubic ft.

512 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
the rate or speed given to you is 32 meters per second
the time given to you is 16 seconds
to find the distance, you multiply your rate and time (not add)
multiplying would get you to 512 m/s
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A, or 16 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to analyze what the function means. It tells you that x is the number of minutes in the shower, so now we have y=3(minutes in shower). Logically, 3 has to be gallons per minute so that the equation makes sense, since you're multiplying 3 by minutes in the shower. It also uses the same phrasing in the beginning of the problem when it says "A standard shower head in Jen's house dispenses 5 gallons of water per minute." Now, it's 3 gallons of water per minute (x). That means y has to be overall gallons. So, now the equations is overall gallons=3 gallons per minute. If she uses the shower for 8 minutes we can plug in for x. So now the equation is overall gallons=3 gallons times 8 minutes, or overall gallons=24 gallons. With the new shower head, 24 gallons is used. Now to find for the old shower head. 5 gallons per minute times 8 minutes = 40 gallons. Now we subtract to find out how many gallons Jen saves each day. 40-24=16. She saves 16 gallons.
