Another one: I didn't attempt to solve this one, so I'm leaving it up here so when I tackle it later I can see if I get the same answer.
A right conical tank, having a diameter or 10 ft and height of 25 ft, was initially full of water. Then, it is being drained at the rate of pi/1875 (x)^0.5 ft^3/min, where x is the height of the water level.
A) Find a formula for the depth x.
B) the amount of water in the tank at any time t
C) how long will it take for the tank to empty out water?
