Question

(a)Charmaine pumped 60 gallons of water out of her pool. This was done over a period of 10 minutes at a constant rate. What was the change in the amount of water in the pool each minute?

Answer 1

We have the next information

60 gallons - 10 minutes

x gallons - 1 minute

x is the number of gallons per minutes, in order to find that we need to divide 60 between 10

$x=\frac{60}{10}=6$

6 gallons per minute
