Louie made 8.1 liters of fruit punch using only grape juice and carbonated water. He used 4.2 liters of grape juice. The equation 4.2 + c = 8.1 can be used to represent this situation, where c is the number of liters of carbonated water used. How many liters of carbonated water did Louie use?

Given:

The equation is:

Where c is the number of liters of carbonated water used.

To find:

How many liters of carbonated water did Louie use?

Solution:

We have,

We need to solve this equation for c to find the number of liters of carbonated water used by Louie.

Subtracting 4.2 from both sides, we get

Therefore, Louie used 3.9 liters of carbonated water.

i believe the answer is c.

hope this !
