Answer:
Water should be greater than 946.11 gallons per week to prevent the pool from drying.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have an outdoor swimming pool that is 5.0 m wide and 12.0 m long.
The height of water evaporated is = 2.35 inch
We will convert this to m.
1 inch = 0.0254 meter
So, 2.35 inch = [tex]2.35\times0.0254=0.05969[/tex] meter
Now, volume of water in the pool = [tex]5\times12\times0.05969=3.5814[/tex] cubic meter per week.
1 cubic meter = 264.172 gallons
So, 3.5814 cubic meter = [tex]3.5814\times264.172=946.11[/tex]gallons
Hence, the volume of the water that should be poured in the swimming pool should be greater than 946.11 gallons per week to prevent the pool from drying.
