Question
A rectangular swimming pool has a volume of 3,470 cubic feet. Water is being added to the pool at a rate
of about 30 cubic feet per minute. Use an equation in point-slope form to determine about how long will
it take to fill the pool completely if there were already about 1,275 gallons of water in the pool. Use the
fact that 1 cubic foot of space holds about 7.5 gallons of water. Round the answer to the nearest integer if
necessary.
How many minutes will it take?
