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

How many minutes are in 5/6, 1/2, and 2/3 of an hour
julia-pushkina [17]
An hour has 60 minutes.

-> 5/6 of 60 minutes
5/6*60
=50

So, 50 minutes

-> 1/2 of 60 minutes
1/2*60
=30

So, 30 minutes

-> 2/3 of 60 minutes
2/3*60
=40

So, 40 minutes.

Simplify the following complex fraction.(3/7---1/3)2/3-----1/7
Yakvenalex [24]
Please retype this fraction.  If by "---" you mean "subtraction," type 3/7-1/3.

Let's assume that the problem is as follows:  (3/7-1/3)(2/3)-1/7;
first, find the LCD of 3/7 and 1/3 and then combine 3/7 and -1/3).
second, multiply your result by (2/3).
third, subtract 1/7 from your result.

If, however, your "---" and "-----" mean "division, then the above is all wrong.

If that's the case, then please retype your whole question.

You could express "the quotient of 2/3 and 1/6" as follows:
   
            2
          ----
            3

------------------------
            1
          -----
             6

Is that what you meant?

Sorry to be picky, but it's very important that you express math properly.
