Question: [ 1 0 point ] Transmissivity indicates the rate at which water is transmitted through a unit width of a confined aquifer under a unit

[10 point] Transmissivity indicates the rate at which water is transmitted through a unit width of a confined aquifer under a unit hydraulic gradient. The following drawdown data shown in the Table are from an observation well located 475ft from a pumping well that fully penetrates a confined aquifer. A discharge of 1.17ft3s is pumped from the well. The drawdown data are plotted on a semilog paper and a straight line is drawn through the data (shown below). Estimate the transmissivity (ft2s) of the aquifer.
