Answer:

<em>it requires more than or equal to 4 tanks</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

An elephant needs to drink at least 40 gallons of water each day. A drinking tank contains 4 gallons of water. The elephant has already consumed 24 gallons of water. How many more tanks x of water does the elephant need to drink? Write your answer as an inequality.

An elephant drinks 40 gallons of water

a tank contains 4 gallon of water

lets convert the 40 gallons of water to tanks,t

40/4=10t

the elephant has consumed 24 gallons already

it means it has consumed 24/4=6t

x=more tanks need to drink

xt+6t≥10t..................1

xt≥10t-6t

x≥4

it requires more than or equal to 4 tanks

Sally and Karl work at different jobs. Sally earns $7 per hour and Karl earns $5 per hour. They each earn the same amount per we
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Karl works 7 hours a week

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine total amount that Sally earns

Total amount Sally earns=rate per hour×number of hours worked(h)

where;

Rate per hour=$7 per hour

Number of hours worked=h

Replacing;

Total amount Sally earns=(7×h)=7 h

Step 2: Determine total amount Karl earns

Total amount Karl earns=rate per hour×number of hours worked

where;

rate per hour=$5

number of hours worked=2 more than Sally=h+2

replacing;

Total amount Karl earns=5(h+2)

Step 3: Equate Sally's total earnings to Karl's total earnings and solve for h

7 h=5(h+2)

7 h=5 h+10

7 h-5 h=10

2 h=10

h=10/2

h=5

Karl works (h+2) hours=(5+2)= 7 hours

Karl works 7 hours a week
