Answer:

10,800

-1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

40 units of maple sap = 1 ounce of maple syrup

Using a 20 - ounce bottle, 2 ounces of air is left

Ounces of actual syrup = (20 - 2) = 18 ounces

Number of maple sap required to fill 15 bottles :

Number of maple saps required to fill 18 ounces bottle :

40 units = 1 ounce

x = 18 ounces

Hence, for 18 ounces of maple syrup :

(40 * 18).= 720 units of maple sap

For 15 bottles of 18 ounces maple syrup:

(720 * 15) = 10,800 units of maple sap

If they had filled each bottle to the top:

(40 * 20 * 15) = 12000 units of maple sap

10,800 - 12000 = - 1200 units of maple sap

2y+8x=1 in slope intercept form
anzhelika [568]
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.
Following that kind of form becomes
2y = -8x + 1
y =(-8x + 1)/2
y = -4x + 1/2

Hope this helps <span>✌️</span>☺️✌️
