By statement equation, the extra water bottles can you add to your backpack if each bottle weighs 3/4 pound is 2 .
It is given that the total weight of your backpack and its contents is 13 3/8 pounds.
Also given , we want to carry no more than 15 pounds.
Let the number of bottles we can carry be x.
Each bottles weigh 3/4 pounds.
Total weight of the bottles = 3x/4 pounds.
Thus, the total weight of the backpack is 13 3/8 + 3x/4 pounds .
Thus the statement equation formed is -
⇒ 107/8 + 3x/4 = 15
⇒ 3x/4 = 13/8
⇒ x = 13/6 = 2.166
∴ x ≈ 2
Therefore, by statement equation, the extra water bottles can you add to your backpack if each bottle weighs 3/4 pound is 2 .
