Respuesta :

The answer is 14/9 or 1 5/9
To find the rate, we can first find out how much gallons is released in 1 day, and then find out how much gallons it releases in 7 days/1 week. For one day rate, the pump releases 10/45 gal/day. Then we multiply the rate by 7. 10/45*7 = 70/45 = 14/9 = 1 5/9 gal/week
Hope this helps
