Respuesta :

Answer:

More than 22 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy is pumping water into an aquarium at a rate of 11 liters per minute.

The aquarium had 34 liters of water in it before she started.

Her goal is given by inequality as follows :

11x+34 < 254 ...(1)

x denotes the number of minutes

Subtract 34 to both sides of the inequality

11x+34-34 < 254-34

11x < 220

x < 22

Hence, she will pumps water into the aquarium for more than 22 minutes.
