The dam has 12 pumps that each transfer the same amount of water through pipes from Lake Roosevelt to Banks Lake. Together, the pumps can transfer about 12,000 gallons of water each second. About how many gallons of water can each pump transfer in 1 second?

1,000 gallons of water each pump can transfer in 1 second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The dam has 12 pumps that each transfer the same amount of water through pipes from Lake Roosevelt to Banks Lake.

Together, the pumps can transfer about 12,000 gallons of water each second.

Now, to find the gallons of water each pump can transfer in 1 second.

Number of pumps the dam has = 12.

Gallons of water all pumps can transfer in 1 second= 12,000.

As given, each pumps transfer the same amount of water through pipes.

Now, to get the gallons of water each pump can transfer in 1 second we divide gallons of water all pumps can transfer in 1 second by the number of pumps the dam has:

Therefore, 1,000 gallons of water each pump can transfer in 1 second.

answer4 to the second power is 16

and 4 to the third power is 64,

3

step-by-step explanation:

divide 13.5 by 9 to get the scale factor. it equals 1.5

2 * 1.5 = 3
