Final answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

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.
