A leak in a pool causes the height of the water to decrease by 0.25 feet before the leak is fixed. After the leak is fixed, the

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

Answer:

5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the height of the water is 4.75 feet, the equation is

4.75 = x + (-0.25)

To solve, add 0.25 to each side:

4.75+0.25 = x+(-0.25)+0.25

5.00 = x

-4.75 = x + (-0.25)  well x=5

and the 4.75 is positive

use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point slope form passing through (-5,7) and (-8,6)
KengaRu [80]
Point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where slope=m
and (x1,y1) is a given point

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(6-7)/(-8-(-5))=-1/(-8+5)=-1/-3=1/3

pick any point
(x,y)
(-5,7)

y-7=1/3(x+5) or
y-6=1/3(x+8)
