To calculate the amount of water Adam uses every year, we need to know how much water is used during a 10-minute shower. The given options are in different units of measurement. Let's convert them all to the same unit.
Option 1: 4,000 mL = 4 L
Option 2: 40,000 mL = 40 L
Option 3: 14,610 L stays the same
Option 4: 40 L stays the same
Now, let's calculate the amount of water Adam uses in a year:
10 minutes * 365 days = 3,650 minutes
Using each option:
1. Option 1: 4 L * 3,650 minutes = 14,600 L
2. Option 2: 40 L * 3,650 minutes = 146,000 L
3. Option 3: 14,610 L * 1 year = 14,610 L
4. Option 4: 40 L * 3,650 minutes = 146,000 L
The correct answer is 14,610 L of water every year.

I apologize for the confusion. Let's calculate the amount of water Adam uses every year if he takes a 10-minute shower each day.
To calculate the amount of water used per shower, we need to know the flow rate of water from the showerhead. Let's assume an average flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute (9.46 liters per minute).
In 10 minutes, Adam would use:
10 minutes * 2.5 gallons per minute = 25 gallons (94.64 liters)
In one year (365 days), Adam would use:
25 gallons * 365 days = 9,125 gallons (34,645 liters)
So, the correct answer is 9,125 gallons (or 34,645 liters) of water every year.
