Keisha's fish tank has 13 liters of water in it. She plans to add 4 liters per minute until the tank has at least 41 liters. What are the possible numbers of minutes Keisha could add water? Use t for the number of minutes. Write your answer as an inequality solved for t.

7≥t

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank already has 13litres of water in it.

Keisha plans on increasing the quantity of the water to 41 litres. Hence,

41 litres - 13litres = 28litres

The above implies that she needed 28litres to be added to the fish tank.

She adds 4 litres per minute

Now, the question can now be reframed as how many minutes will be needed to add 28litre.

Considering to proportion method

4litres = 1 minute

28litres = t minutes

4litres × t minutes = 28litres

t = 28/4

t = 7 minutes

Hence, at least 7 minutes will be needed to increase the quantity of the tank water from 13litres to 41litres

But since we are to write the answer in an inequality form.

41≥ 13+4t

Solve for t

41≥13+4t

41-13≥4t

28≥4t

Divide both sides by 4

28/4≥4t/4

7≥t

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}
