Answer:

The volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of each of the four barrels is v liters.

Now, the amount of water that can be held in the fifth barrel is 10 liters. The total capacity of holding water for the 5 barrels combines is at least 200 liters.

So, from the above-given information, we can write the inequality to determine the volume of each of the four barrels will be  

10 + 4v ≥ 200

Solving this we get,

4v ≥ 190

⇒ v ≥ 47.5

Therefore, the volume each of the four barrels of the same size will be at least 47.5 liters. (Answer)

What is the slope between point A (-9, 4) and B ( 3, -2)
MaRussiya [10]

Slope can be calculated using the formula: m=   \frac{y2 -y1}{x2-x1}

y1/x1 represents the first number in the bracket

y2/x2 represents the second number in the bracket

Calculation

m =  \frac{y2 -y1}{x2-x1}

m =  \frac{4 - (-2)}{(-9)-3}

m= 6/-12

m= -0.5 or -1/2

Therefore, the answer is B.
