This problem can be represented with an equation:

[tex]C = 1.75x + 9[/tex]

C represents the total amount of juice in the container. 1.75 represents how much juice is added to the container each second. x represents the amount of seconds that elapse, and 9 represents the initial amount of juice in the container.

6 seconds elapsed, so x will equal 6. Plug this into the equation:

[tex]1.75(6) + 9[/tex]
[tex]10.5 + 9 = 19.5[/tex]

There will be 19.5 ounces of juice in the container after 6 seconds.
a total of 20 ounces. you multiply 1.75 6 times then add it to what is already in the container , 9.5 + 10.5 = 20
