Question

A fish tank has 35 gallons of water in it, but suddenly starts leaking. Water is leaking from the tank at a rate of 1/4 gallon per minute.

Answer 1

Answer:

35 - m

Step-by-step explanation:

A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute.

"m" represents the number of minutes spent

Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – number of minutes spent  rate of leakage.

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – m minutes  1 gallons per minute
