Question

There are 9.5 ounces of juice in a container. an additional 1.75 ounces of juice are poured into the container each second. how many ounces of juice are in the container after 6 seconds? enter your answer in the box. ounces

Answer 1

20 ounces of juice because u take 9.5+1.75 . 6 times and get 20 that is how it is 20 ounces of juice 

Answer 2

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

We have then:

x: time in seconds

y: number of ounces

We then have an equation of the form:

$y = mx + b$

Where,

b: initial amount of juice

m: amount of juice added every second.

Substituting values we have:

$y = 1.75x + 9.5$

For 6 seconds later we have:

$y = 1.75 (6) +9.5 y = 20$

Answer:

20 ounces of juice are in the container after 6 seconds
