Answer:

40m

Explanation:

Complete question

The equations h = 60 - 4m gives the height h (in inches) of the water in a tank m minutes after it starts to drain. How high is the water after 5 minutes.

To get the height of the water after 5minutes, we will find h at when m = 5

h = 60 -4 (5)

h = 60 - 20

h = 40m

Hence the water is 40m high after 5minutes
