Question

The equation that models this relationship is y=2x. How many liters of water should Austin combine with 16 scoops of juice mix? Write your answer as a whole number or decimal.

Answer 1

8 liters

Explanation:

Given that:

y = 2x

where y is the number of scoops of juice mix, and x is the liters of water required.

To determine the liters of water required for 16 scoops of juice mix;

y = 16

So that,

16 = 2x

x =
`(16)/(2)`

= 8

x = 8 liters

Therefore, Austin would combine 8 liters of water to the 16 scoops of juice mix.
