Answer:
A. y = 17x
B. 867 fluid ounces
C. 3 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
There are few bottles of water that each contain 17 fluid ounces of water.
A. If the number of bottles is given by x and the total volume of water those bottles contain is y in fluid ounces, then the equation that relates x and y is
y = 17x ...... (1) (Answer)
B. If x =51, then the volume of water in 51 bottles will be given by equation (1) as
y = 51 × 17 = 867 fluid ounces. (Answer)
C. If y = 51 fluid ounces, then from equation (1), the number of bottles will be given by x = 51/17 =3 bottles. (Answer)
