Answer :x=3 y=7 (3,7)
Step-by-step explanation: I took algebra last year and I answered your question earlier.
T= number of minutes
Multiply 5 liters by number of minutes (t), then add the 17 liters already in the tank. This totals 72 liters or more.
17 + 5t ≥ 72
subtract 17 from both sides
5t ≥ 55
divide both sides by 5
t ≥ 11 minutes
ANSWER: Laura could add water for 11 minutes to be sure the tank has 72 liters or more.
Hope this helps! :)
