Gael Flowers · Answer 1

Since all bottles contain equal volume and the total volume is given as 126 ounces then to find volume of each bottle, considering that the 126 ounces are in 12 bottles then each bottle will have 126/12=10.5 ounces

Laci Erickson · Answer 2

y (x) = 10.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all bottles contain equal volume and the total volume is given as 126 ounces then to find volume of each bottle, considering that the 126 ounces are in 12 bottles then each bottle will have 126/12=10.5 ounces.

The volume for x similar bottles will be x*10.5 ounces.

Therefore, the formula for volume will be

y (x) = 10.5x
