Answer:

24 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

During a week the water level in a pond decreased by 4 in. Per day,

For two days, it decreased by half that amount = 4\times\frac{1}{2}=2\ inches\ per\ day

Question asked:

How much did the water level decrease in the pond in one week?

Solution:

As we know, there are 7 days in a week.

<u>For 5 days,</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 4 inches

In 5 days, water level decreased by = 4\times5=20\ inches

<u>For exceptional 2 days:</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 2 inches

In 2 days, water level decreased by = 2\times2=4\ inches

Water level decreased in whole week = 20 + 4 = 24 inches

Therefore, water level decreased 24 inches in the pond in one week.

Alex73 [517]

50% of 24.98 = $12.49

24.98 + 12.49 = 37.47

187.34 / 37.47 = 5

5 x 2 hats = 10 hats

He bought 10 hats.

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:    0.52(x) + 0.72(4) = 0.57(x + 4)

0.52(x) + 0.72(4) = 0.57(x + 4)             \longmapsto         Multiply

0.52x + 2.88 = 0.57x + 2.28               \longmapsto         Subtract 0.52x from both sides

2.88 = 0.05x + 2.28                            \longmapsto         Subtract 2.28 from both sides

0.6 = 0.05x                                          \longmapsto        Divide all sides by 0.05

 

x = 12

Oksana_A [137]

Hi,

You just have to change z^25 to z^24 or z^27.

125x^{18}y^3z^{24}=(5x^6*y*z^8)^3
