PLEASE HELP! A tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of 1/4 gallon per minute. Write an expression to determi
1 answer:
Answer:
35 - m is the expression used to determine the number of gallons left in the tank after m minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Tank with 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute
Calculations:
- Let "m" represent the number of minutes spent
- Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water
- The required expression is 35 – m

Since you know the value of "x", you can plug in the value for "x" in the equation.
[When an exponent is negative, you move it to the other side of the fraction to make the exponent positive.]
For example:
or
or y³
x = -2
f(x) = 9x + 7
f(-2) = 9(-2) + 7 = -18 + 7 = -11
(idk if you should have it as a decimal or a fraction)
x = -1
f(x) = 9x + 7
f(-1) = 9(-1) + 7 = -9 + 7 = -2
x = 0
f(x) = 9x + 7
f(0) = 9(0) + 7 = 7
x = 1
f(x) = 9x + 7
f(1) = 9(1) + 7 = 9 + 7 = 16
x = 2
f(x) = 9x + 7
f(2) = 9(2) + 7 = 18 + 7 = 25
You need to determine the solution of f(x) = g(x)
Since you know f(x) = 9x + 7 and , you can plug in (9x + 7) for f(x), and (
) into g(x)
f(x) = g(x)
You can plug in each value of x into the equation
Your answer is x = 2 because when you plug in 2 for x in the equation, you get 25 = 25
