Answer:
A) 24*m + 40 ≤ 256
B) She could leave the house running for at most 9 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing questions are:
<em>Part A. Create an inequality to represent the number of minutes, m, Vanessa could run the garden hose to add more water to the pond without adding the maximum amount in case of rain.
</em>
<em>
Part B. Select all the amounts of time, in minutes, that Vanessa could leave the house running.</em>
A) 48 gallons of water in 2 minutes is the same as 24 gallons per minute. Considering that her pond can hold a maximum of 256 gallons, it already has 40 gallons, and that the flow rate is 24 gallons per minute, the inequality is:
24*m + 40 ≤ 256
B) Solving the previous equation:
24*m ≤ 256 - 40
m ≤ 216/24
m ≤ 9
