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

Answer:

The probe's final position is -143m

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the words 'lowered' and 'below' mean subtract; while the word 'raised' means add. Thus, interpreting the statement to mathematical expression is done below.

- 90m + 50m - 138m + 35m

=  - 143m

Therefore, the probe's final position is -143m. Hence, the sensor is 143m below the sea level.
