Answer:

-9\dfrac{5}{8} inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The level of a lake was 8 inches below normal.

Now, it is given that the water level decreases 1\dfrac{1}{4} = 1.25 inches in June and 2\dfrac{3}{8} =2.375 inches more in July.

Therefore, the new level of water with respect to the normal level will be  

= - 8 - 1.25 - 2.375  

= - 9.625 inches

= -9\dfrac{5}{8} inches. (Answer)

A crew will arrive in one week and begin filming a city for a movie. The mayor is desperate to clean the city streets before fil
Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week = 7 days of 24 hours each = 7×24 = 168 hours.

the first team can do 1/700 of the total work per hour.

the second team can do 1/600 if the total work per hour.

if they work together, then 1/700 + 1/600 of the total work can be done per hour.

to add these 2 fractions we need to bring them to the same denominator. and that would be 4200 (LCM of 700 and 600).

1/700 + 1/600 = 6/4200 + 7/4200 = 13/4200

so, together, they can do 13/4200 if the total job in 1 hour.

how many hours will they need together to finish the job ?

well, how often does 13 fit into 4200 (as 4200/4200 is the complete job) ?

4200 / 13 = 323.0769231... hours

so, it will still take a little bit over 323 hours to clean all the streets.

but there are only 168 hours until the film crew starts.

so, no, there is not enough time.

15x + 14 = 149<br><br><br>Plz solve for x
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing these types of problems, the main goal is to get the variable by itself. Its kind of hard to explain with words so I will just use numbers.

15x + 14 = 149

(Subtract 14 on both sides. Remember, when you do something (Like subtracting, adding, etc.) on one side you have to do it to the other.)

15x + 14 = 149

       -14 =  -14

---------------------------

15x = 135

(Divide 15 on both sides. Since we need to use inverse operation to cancel the 15 out, we would divide 15 on both sides.)

15x/15 = 135/15

x = 9

Hope this helps :)
