Answer: A. y = 16 x
B. 8 days
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Here, 16 Fluid ounces of milk is used for breakfast every morning.
In one day the consumption of milk = 16 fluid ounces
In x days the consumption of milk = 16 x fluid ounces
Thus, if y be the total milk in ounces that is used in x days,
The required function,
y = 16 x
B) In 1 day, consumption of milk = 16 ounces
⇒ [tex]16\text{ ounces milk } = 1 \text{ day}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]8\times 16\text{ ounces milk } = 8\times 1 \text{ day}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]128\text{ ounces milk } = 8 \text{ day}[/tex]
Since, 128 ounces = 1 gallon
⇒ [tex]1\text{ gallon milk } = 8 \text{ day}[/tex]
In 8 days, 1 gallon of milk will consumed.
