Answer:

3/4 milliliter per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the system developed a small leak and it loses 15 milliliters every 20 minutes, then we can say;

15 milliliters = 20 minutes

We are to look for the speed of the water per minutes.

x milliliters = 1 minutes

Equating both expressions, we have;

15 milliliters = 20 minutes

x milliliters = 1 minutes

Cross multiply

20 * x = 15

x = 15/20

x = 3/4 milliliters

Hence the change is 3/4 milliliter per minute.
