you have a bottle of water with a leak. after 2 second,there are 28 ounces left in the bottle. after 6 seconds, there are 20 ounces left in the bottle. how fast is the bottle losing water
Accepted Solution
A:
In the 6 - 2 = 4 seconds for which we have a report, the bottle lost 28 -20 = 8 ounces.
The bottle is losing water at the rate of (8 oz)/(4 s) = 2 oz/s.
