Question

Maya's fish tank has 19 liters of water in it.she plans to add 6 liters per minute until the tank has at least 73. what are the possible numbers of minutes Maya could add water?

use t for the numbers of minutes.
write your answer as an inequality solved t.​

Answer 1

the least amount of time it would take to fill up water is 9 minutes. subtract the end amount from the amount you already have. divide e remainder by the rate you would be filling up at. the number you have left is how many minutes

Answer 2

t≤9

Explanation:

73-19=54

54/6=9

It has to take at least 9 minutes to fill up the tank, but since it asks for an equality, t≤9 (t is greater than or equal to 9)
