Alarge container holds 8 gallons of water. it begins leaking at a constant rate. after 48 minutes, the container has 5 gallons of water left. at what rate is the water leaking? express your answer as a positive value. the water is leaking at the rate of gal/min

16 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

3 gallons are gone after 48 minutes.

Divide to find the unit rate:

48 / 3 = 16

The unit rate is 16 gallons per minute

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
