4. A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of 1/4 gallon per minute. Write an expression to determine the number of gallons left in the tank after m minutes. PLEASE Help meeee((((r

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of gallons left in tank after m minutes $35 -\frac{m}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A tank containing 35 gallons of water.

Total water in tank = 35 gallons

In 1 minute =$\frac{1}{4}$ gallons

In m minute = Rate of Leakage in tank in m minutes

By using Unitary  Method we get,

Rate of Leakage in tank in m Minutes = $\frac{m}{4}$

Number of gallons left = Total water in tank - Rate of Leakage in tank in m Minutes =  $35 - \frac{m}{4}$

Number of gallons left in tank after m minutes $35 -\frac{m}{4}$
