Answer:

I think it would be 55+8x. I hope this helps. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

55 gallons of water

8 gallons per minute

It would be 55 gallons (the original amount in the tank) plus 8 gallons per minute. (8x)

x = how many minutes the tank is being filled up more.

so if you were to fill up the tank another 5 minutes, the equation would be 55+8(5)

55+40

95 would be the answer.

WARRIOR [948]
Set up multiplication/division of ratios to cancel out units you don't need for the final answer and introduce those that you do.

We have m/s and we want m/min so

(100m/s)(60s/min)=6000m/min

Of 560 marbles in a bag, 65% are red and the rest are blue. After 28 red marbles are replaced with blue ones, how many blue marb
jonny [76]

Answer:  The answer is 400  blue marbles.


Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 560 marbles in a bag, out of which 65% are red and rest are blue.

So, number of red marbles is

n_r=65\%\times 560=\dfrac{65}{100}\times 560=364,

and number of blue marbles is

n_b=560-364=196.

Now, if 28 red marbles are replaced by blue marbles, the the new number of red and blue marbles will be

n_r^\prime=364-28=336~~~\textup{and}~~~n_b^\prime=196+28=224.

Now, to get 65% of the marbles blue, we need to add some more blue marbles to the bag. Let 'x' number of blue marbles are added to the bag, then

65\%\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{65}{100}\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow 13(560+x)=20(224+x)\\\\\Rightarrow 7280+13x=4480+20x\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=2800\\\\\Rightarrow x=400.

Thus, 400 blue marbles need to be added to the bag.
