Answer:

  5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 0.25 to both sides of the equation:

  4.75 +0.25 = x - 0.25 +0.25

  5.00 = x

The original height of the water in the pool was 5.00 feet.

Line j has a slope of − 2. Line d is perpendicular to line j and passes through the point( − 8 , 3 ).  Write the equation for
Zina [86]

Answer:

The equation is: y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of j is -2. The slope of a line perpendicular to line j has a negative inverse: 1/2. The point is (-8, 3).

Use the point slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitute:

y - 3 = 1/2(x - (-8))

y - 3 = 1/2x + 4

y = 1/2x + 4 + 3

y = 1/2x + 7

Proof:

Solve for f(x) when x = -8.

f(x) = 1/2x + 7

f(-8) = 1/2(-8) + 7

= -8/2 + 7

= -4 + 7

= 3, giving the point (-8, 3)
