Answer:
32 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
A standard showerhead in Marty's house dispenses 7 gallons of water per minute. If he showers for 8 minutes, he uses:
1 minute = 7 gallons
8 minutes = x
x = 7 × 8 minutes = 56 gallons of water
We are told that:
Marty changed this showerhead to an energy-saving 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
The equation for the energy saving shower:
y = 3x
Where x is the number of minutes spent in the shower
For 8 minutes
y = 3 × 8
y = 24 gallons
The gallons of water Marty saved each day with the change in showerheads if he uses the shower for 8 minutes each day is calculated as:
56 gallons - 24 gallons
= 32 gallons
8k - 8 + 6k
= 14k-8
