Answer:
77.44%
49.87%
Step-by-step explanation:
If 12% leaks everyday, on the first day 12% would leak, leaving 100 - 125 = 88% of air
on the second day, 12% of 88% would leak = 0.88 x 0.12 = 0.1056
Air left on the second day = 88% - 10.56% = 77.44%
After a week = (100 - 12%)^7 = 49.87%
The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have: m = 1 and b = -1. Substitute:
y = 1x - 1
<h3>Answer: y = x - 1</h3>

Answer: 6</h3>
=======================================
Work Shown:
1 liter = 1000 mL
3 liters = 3000 mL
I multiplied both sides by 3.
Divide that result over 500 to get 3000/500 = 6
So she'll need to buy 6 cartons.
-------
You could also solve like this:
(1 carton)/(500 mL) = (x cartons)/(3000 mL)
1/500 = x/3000
1*3000 = 500*x ... cross multiply
3000 = 500x
500x = 3000
x = 3000/500 .... dividing both sides by 500
x = 6
