Andrei wants to fill a glass tank with marbles, and then fill the remaining space with water.
W represents the volume of water Andrei uses (in liters) if he uses n marbles.
W=32-0.05n
What is the volume of each marble?

Respuesta :

According to the linear equation given, it is found that the volume of each marble is of 0.05 liters.

A linear equation is modeled by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of x when y = 0.

In this problem, the volume of water on a tank of 32 liters when n marbles are used is:

[tex]W = 32 - 0.05n[/tex]

The slope is of [tex]m = 0.05[/tex], which means that for each marble, there is 0.05 liters less available for water, meaning that the volume of each marble is of 0.05 liters.
