A leak in a pool causes the height of the water to decrease by 0.25 foot over 2 hours. After the leak is fixed, the height of th

e water is 4.75 feet. The equation 4.75 = x + (negative 0.25) can be used to find x, the original height of the water in a pool.

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The original height of the water in the pool in feet is 5.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given the equation, 4.75 = x + (-0.25) can be used to find x, the original height of the water in a pool. Therefore, the height of the fool in the beginning is,

4.75 = x + (-0.25)

4.75 + 0.25 = x

x = 5

Hence, the original height of the water in the pool in feet is 5.

0. Kevin needs to buy shrubs for his yard. Six shrubs at the nursery cost $72.00. At the garden
Elanso [62]

Answer:

72÷6=12

so at the nursery it cost $12 per shrub

66÷6=11

so at the store it cost $11 per shrub

so if you buy 21 shrubs from the nursery it will cost: 12×21=$252

but if you buy 21 shrubs from the store it only cost: 11×21=$231

$252-$231=$21

Use Euler’s Formula to find the missing number.<br> Edges: 37<br> Faces: 25<br> Vertices: ?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

The formula that relates edges faces and vertices is  F + V = E + 2

Givens

Edges (E): 37

Faces (F) = 25

Vertices: x

Solution

25 + x = 37 + 2                Subtract 25 from both sides.

25-25 +x= 37 - 25 + 2    Combine

x = 12 + 2

x = 14

Answer: The vertices =<u> 14</u>

A beverage company surveyed 450 adults to determine the demand for summer drinks.
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

174 people preferred drinking water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A total of 450 males and females were surveyed.

203 were males.

Number of females = 450 - 203 = 247 females

247 females were surveyed.

Now, we will find the number of females who prefer water.

Let,

x be that number.

Total number of females = Soda + Iced tea + Lemonade + Water

247 = 28 + 44 + 67 + x

247 = 139 + x

247-139 = x

x = 108

Number of people who prefer water = 108 + 66 = 174

Hence,

174 people preferred drinking water.

Eights rooks are placed randomly on a chess board. What is the probability that none of the rooks can capture any of the other r
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

4.51\times10^{-10}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only 2 solutions for none of the rooks can capture any of the other rooks: only if they are laid out in either of the 2 diagonal of the chess board

The number of possible combination for the rock to laid out in 8x8 (64 slots) chess board

\frac{64 * 63 * 62 * 61 * 60 * 59 * 58 * 57}{8!} = \frac{1.78\times10^{14}}{40320} = 4426165368 possible combination

So the probability is pretty thin

P = 2 / 4426165368 = 4.51\times10^{-10}
