Acertain liquid leaks out of a container at the rate of k liters for every x hours. if the liquid costs $6 per liter, what is the cost, in dollars, of the amount of the liquid that will leak out in y hours?

If k liters of liquid leak out every x hours, we can compute the amount of liters that leak out every hour:

So, with each passing hour we lose liters. So, in hours we lose

liters.

Each of this liters costs 6$, so we lose a total of

dollars.
