So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
Answer:
the green line
Step-by-step explanation:
its closest to the point
I got A, -32, but it has been awhile since I have learned this in my math class. You might want to wait for someone else to verify this answer.
<span>87 less than the quotient of an unknown number and 43 is -75
Converting that to mathematical equation:
87 - (x / 43) = -75
Evaluating the equation, we can the value of x.
87 - (x/43) = -75
-x/43 = -75 - 87
-x/43 = -162
-x = -6966
x = 6966</span>
