Question

maria is using a machine to fill bottles with juice. let ( j(t) ) represent the amount of juice, in liters, in the bottle after ( t ) seconds. which of the following statements best describes the meaning of ( j(4)=2 ) in this context? after 4 seconds, the bottle contains 2 liters of juice. after 2 seconds, the bottle contains 4 liters of juice. after 4 minutes, the bottle contains 4 liters of juice. after 4 minutes, the bottle contains 2 liters of juice. after 2 minutes, the bottle contains 4 liters of juice.

Explanation:

In the function \(j(t)\), \(t\) represents time in seconds and \(j(t)\) represents the amount of juice in liters. When \(t = 4\) (seconds) and \(j(4)=2\), it means at \(t = 4\) seconds, the value of the function (amount of juice) is \(2\) liters.

Answer:

After 4 seconds, the bottle contains 2 liters of juice.
