After 20 minutes, the faucet will have dripped 30 ounces of water.

To find how many ounces of water will have dripped after 20 minutes, we can substitute the value of m = 20 into the equation

=> d = m + 10.

d = 20 + 10

= 30 ounces

Therefore, after 20 minutes, the faucet will have dripped 30 ounces of water.
