Question

Mr. Murphy's Megan graph to show his class the amount of water person consumes from food and beverages over time.

a person consumes 12 gallon of water each day (i already answerd this part)

(this part is the one im asking about )
complete the equation to show the relationship between X the number of days and Y the amount of water consumed
Y = ? X​

Answer 1

12

Explanation:

I got it correct.

Answer 2

y = 12x

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that a person consumes 12 gallons of water each day

Now, we want to complete an equation

From the question, x is the number of days and y is the amount of water consumed

Thus, mathematically, we have the equation as;

y = 12x

since in the first day, 12 gallons is consumed, the second will be 12 * 2 and so on

So the amount of water depends on rate number of days
