Question

Water evaporates at a rate of 1.5 ounces per day from a container that holds 34 ounces when . What is an expression that represents the amount of water remaining in the container after d days

Answer 1

R (ounces) = 34 ounces - d (1.5)

Explanation:

Given that:

rate of evaporation = 1.5 ounce/ day

Container holds = 34 ounces

Number of days = d

Let the remaining water be represented by R (ounces)

Expression would become:

R = Container holding capacity - number of days (rate of evaporation)

R (ounces) = 34 ounces - d (1.5)
