To find: It needs to be determined how much total gallons of water is pumped from the tank in 24 hours.
Answer to Problem 39E
The total gallons of water pumped from the tank in 24 hours is 3450 which is near to option C, thus option (C) is the correct choice.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: A graph is shown in the textbook which shows the rate at which the water is pumped from a storage tank.
The area under the curve determines the volume of the water pumped from the tank which can be approximated by counting the number of squares below it.
There are 11.5 squares under the curve which can be counted from the graph, so the area of each square is
Hence the option (C) is the correct choice.
