A standard showerhead in Sonia's house dispenses 12 gallons of water per minute. Sonia changed this showerhead to an energy-savi

ng one. The equation shows the amount of water dispensed, y, as a function of the number of minutes, x, for the new showerhead. y = 3x How much water does Sonia save each day with the change in showerheads if she uses the shower for 8 minutes each day?

Sonia saves a lot of water. To figure this out, you plug the number 8 into the equation, replacing it with the variable x. y = 3(8). Therefore, y=24. To find out how much water she saves, you have to also figure out how much water she was using for 8 minutes with the other shower head, the one that wastes the water. Since it dispenses 12 gallons per minute, you multiply that by 8 minutes and get 96. Subtract 24 from 96 and get 72. Which I think is your answer. Then again, I'm in high school so I most likely am wrong.

For example, we might say that s stands for the side-length of a square. We now treat s as if it were a number we could use. The perimeter of the square is given by 4 × s. The area of the square is given by s× s. When working with variables, it can be helpful to use a letter that will remind you of what the variable stands for: let n be the number of people in a movie theater; let t be the time it takes to travel somewhere; let d be the distance from my house to the park. ExpressionsAn expression is a mathematical statement that may use numbers, variables, or both.Example:The following are examples of expressions:2x3 + 72 × y + 52 + 6 × (4 - 2)z + 3 × (8 - z<span>)</span></span>
