refilled for 10 days, how many gallons of water will be in the pool? Round your answer to the nearest gallon enter the amount

Answer 1

Answer:

• 7019 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

• Initial volume of water = 8000 gal
• Daily reduction = 1.3%
• Time = 10 days

Required equation:

• 8000*(1- 0.013)^10 =
• 8000*0.987^10 =
• 7018.7781 ≈ 7019 rounded to the nearest gallon
