a..x is what’s already in the bottle so 24-x= the number of ounces needed to fill the bottle

b.. 24-x= 12.....how many ounces is x
(don’t know if this question works)

The correct statement is that the (24 - x) represents the amount of empty space of the bottle.

What is the linear system?

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Given

A bottle holds 24 ounces of water.

It has x ounces of water in it.

How to find the equation?

Let, y be the amount of empty space of the bottle.

A bottle holds 24 ounces of water.

Then, we know that

The sum of the amount of water in a bottle and the amount of empty space of a bottle is the volume of the water.

x + y = 24

     y = 24 - x

Thus, 24 - x represents the amount of empty space of the bottle.
