To find the total volume of all the tanks at the aquarium after the new dolphin tank is installed, we need to add the volume of the new dolphin tank to the combined volume of the existing tanks.

Combined volume of all the tanks = 2.25 × 10^4 gallons
Volume of the new dolphin tank = 350,000 gallons

Total volume = Combined volume of all the tanks + Volume of the new dolphin tank
Total volume = 2.25 × 10^4 + 350,000

Total volume = 3.575 × 10^5 or 3.575 × 10^5 gallons

Therefore, the total volume of all the tanks at the aquarium after the new dolphin tank is installed is 3.575 × 10^5 gallons.
