1. **Problem statement:**
6. b) If the school only has one pump, how long will it take to fill the pool? Given answer: 9.6 hrs.
6. c) Convert the answer from b) into days.
7.1) Complete the speed column in the table using the formula $\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$.
7.2) Determine if the speed changes.
7.3) Predict based on the speed behavior.
7.4) State if distance is directly or indirectly proportional to time.
2. **Step 6. b)**
The problem states the time is 9.6 hours for one pump to fill the pool, so the answer is:
$$\boxed{9.6 \text{ hours}}$$
3. **Step 6. c)** Convert 9.6 hours to days.
We know:
$$1 \text{ day} = 24 \text{ hours}$$
So,
$$\text{Time in days} = \frac{9.6}{24}$$
Show canceling for simplification:
$$\frac{\cancel{9.6}}{\cancel{24}} = 0.4$$
Therefore,
$$\boxed{0.4 \text{ days}}$$
4. **Step 7.1)** Calculate speed for each time-distance pair using $\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$:
- For 10 min and 21 km:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{21}{10} = 2.1 \text{ km/min}$$
- For 20 min and 42 km:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{42}{20} = 2.1 \text{ km/min}$$
- For 30 min and 63 km:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{63}{30} = 2.1 \text{ km/min}$$
- For 40 min and 84 km:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{84}{40} = 2.1 \text{ km/min}$$
- For 50 min and 105 km:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{105}{50} = 2.1 \text{ km/min}$$
All speeds are $2.1$ km/min.
5. **Step 7.2)** The speed changes at ________?
Since all speeds are equal to $2.1$ km/min, the speed does not change.
Answer:
$$\boxed{\text{speed does not change}}$$
6. **Step 7.3)** Because the car is travelling at a ________ speed we can predict ________?
Since speed is constant, the car travels at a constant speed.
We can predict the distance will increase linearly with time.
Answer:
$$\boxed{\text{constant speed; distance increases linearly with time}}$$
7. **Step 7.4)** Distance is directly/indirectly proportional to time?
Since speed is constant, distance is directly proportional to time.
Answer:
$$\boxed{\text{directly proportional}}$$
