Answer:

Kindly see explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Amount of water in cooler = 144 ounces

Size of Will's water bottle = 16 ounces

Therefore, the amount of water left after filling his water bottle :

144 ounces - 16 ounces = 128 ounces of water.

The 128 ounces left was used to equally fill 16 plastic cups :

Therefore the number of ounces of water put in each cup equals :

(128 ounces ÷ 16 cups) = 8 ounces.

The maximum number of ounces of water will could have put in each cup is 8 ounces

Thus (0 < x ≤ 8)
