Answer

(a) 120 gallons (b) 420 gallons (c) 2076 gallons

Work Step by Step

(a) There are 30 minutes in half an hour, thus saving $120$ gallons of water during that time period. (b) The water supply is given by the area under the graph, which is$\frac{(4+10).60}{2}=420$ gallons. (c) The water supply is given by the area under the graph and therefore by: $\int_{0}^{120}(\sqrt{t}+10) d t=\left.\left(\frac{2}{3} t^{3 / 2}+10t\right)\right|_{0} ^{120}=\frac{2}{3}(120)^{3 / 2}+1200$ $=160 \sqrt{30}+1200 \approx 2076$ gallons
