Calculate how long it would take for all the water to leak out. D. If Marie fills the can with 2 litres of water at her kitchen sink, determine the maximum amount of time she can take to get to her garden if she needs at least 600 mL to water her roses.

Answer:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume after 90 seconds is 1.4 lire and the time taken by can to be empty is 5 minutes and Marie has to take only 3.5 minutes.

What is volume?

It refers to the quantity a container can hold in its capacity.

How to calculate volume?

1) The rule for volume will be

V=2-0.4t where t is minutes and V is volume.

2) By putting t=1.5 we will be able to get

V=2-0.4*1.5

=1.4 litres

3) By putting V=0 we will get

0=2-0.4t

t=5 minutes

4) If we need 0.6 l water then put V=0.600 and we get

0.6=2-0.4t

t=3.5 minutes

Hence the  Volume after 90 seconds is 1.4 lire and the time taken by can to be empty is 5 minutes and Marie has to take only 3.5 minutes.
