For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: time in seconds
y: number of ounces
We then have an equation of the form:
[tex] y = mx + b
[/tex]
Where,
b: initial amount of juice
m: amount of juice added every second.
Substituting values we have:
[tex] y = 1.75x + 9.5
[/tex]
For 6 seconds later we have:
[tex] y = 1.75 (6) +9.5
y = 20
[/tex]
Answer:
20 ounces of juice are in the container after 6 seconds
