a water tank already contains 55 gallons of water when baxter begins to fill it. Water flows into the tank at a rate of 8 gallons per minute. Write a linear equation to model this situation. Find the volume of the water in the tank 25 minutes after Baxter begins filling the tank

Respuesta :

Answer:

Therefore, the volume of the water in the tank 25 minutes after Baxter begins filling the tank is 255 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Equation; Ax+By=C

A linear equation to model this situation:

8x + 55 = C

Where;

  • 8 is for the rate of gallons.
  • 'X' is the minutes.
  • 55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.

8(25) + 55 = 255

Where;

  • 8 is for the rate of gallons.
  • 25 is the minutes.
  • 55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.
