Answer #1

The volume V of rectangular prism swimming pool is given by

V=w×L×h

We know the rate of change of volume,

dV/dt=25 ft^3/hr

The formula for the volume of water can be written as

V(h)= 16×20×h

dV/dh=320

Dh/dV=1/320

The rate of change in depth of water per unit of time is

dh/dt=dh/dV×dV/dt

We have dV/dt= 25 ft^3/hr

dh/dt=(1/320)×25=0.078125 ft/hr
