The answer would be 11 gallons.
The tub starts with 32 gallons. Every minute it loses 3 gallons.
So after 1 minute it has lost 3 gallons. For example:
32-3= 29 Meaning that after 1 minute the tub has 29 gallons left.
Now you have to remember that the tub is draining for 7 minutes. So it is losing 3 gallons 7 times, because it loses 3 gallons each minute and there are 7 minutes.
We can use multiplication to find how many gallons the tub loses after 7 minutes. This sign “X” basically means “groups of”. We have 7 groups of 3, or
7 X 3
This is the same as saying we have 3, 7 times. Written like this:
3+3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 21
So after 7 minutes the tub has lost 21 gallons.
Now we take the original number of gallons and take away what was lost:
32-21=11
So there are 11 gallons left after 7 minutes.
Please let me know if you need any further explanation. Hope this helped.
Answer:
x= 1/256
Step-by-step explanation:
1. multiply both sides by 8x (answer: -5= 8x*-160)
2. divide both sides by -160 (answer: -5/-160 or 1/32 =8x)
3. divide both sides by 8 (answer: 1/256 = x
4. check your answer: -5/(8*1/256)= -160
The Answer is B. because if you look at the answer choices on graph
Y=-2x-5
You can divide by -2 on both sides of the equal sign getting the answer above.
97. the tens number here is 9 and the unit number if 7, from this 7 is less than 9 by 2
