Water left in a tank is (W(t)=120-6t) litres. How much water will remain at (t=8)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 72 L

Given \(W(t)=120-6t\). Substituting \(t=8\), \(W(8)=120-6(8)=120-48=72\) L. Therefore, 72 L is correct. 48 L is only the amount of water removed, not the water remaining. Exam tip: substitute the value of \(t\) first, then multiply and subtract.
