Question

Tammys fish tank 18 liters of water in it. She plans to add 5 liters per minute until the tank has at least 63 liters. What are the possible numbers of minutes Tammy could add water?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hi,

63 = 5x + 18 represents this situation.

63 = 5x + 18

45 = 5x

9 = x

So, the possible number of mins are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

You can also write this as x ≤ 9

I hope this helps :)
