Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
"In the last 2.5 years, the water level has decreased 0.75 feet."
In the very first statement it has been stated that over the last 2.5 years, the water level in a lake has changed by -0.3 feet per year. That means in the last 2.5 years , total decrease in level is as follows
2.5 x - 0.3 = - .75 ft .
So the statement is true.
B)
"The overall change of the water level after 7.5 years will be -2.75 feet."
This statement appears to be false based on information provided
No prediction regarding rate of decrease for a period beyond 5 year has been made so any statement with respect to a timeline of 7.5 years may turn out to be false.
C)
"The change in water level each year for the next 5 years will be -0.4 feet.
"
This statement prima-facie appears to be true because rate of decrease stated in the statement is 0.4 ft /year for next 5 years .
D )
"The overall change in water level for the next 5 years is equal to 5(0.4)"
this statement is true
as change in one year = .4
change in 5 years = 5 x .4
Answer: Infinite solutions
Step 1: Turn this into y=Mx+b form
The current equation is—
-2x+5y=30
Since we want to get y alone on the left side, let’s add 2x on both sides
-2x+5y=30
+2x +2x
____________
5y=2x+30
Step 2: Again, trying to get y alone, we need to divide 5 on both sides
5y=2x+30
/5 /5 /5
________
y=2/5x+6
Step 3: Now that we know how to find y, substitute that in where y is in the equation
-2x + 5(2/5x+6) = 30
-2x + 2x + 30 = 30
30=30
Seeing that you cannot get a specific answer for y when solving, there is an infinite number of solutions

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<h2>length = 6 feet</h2><h2>width = 4 feet</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
where l is the length
w is the width
The length of the rectangle is 2 feet longer than the width is written as
l = 2 + w
Perimeter = 20feet
So we have
20 = 2( 2 + w ) + 2w
20 = 4 + 2w + 2w
4w = 16
Divide both sides by 4
w = 4
Substitute w = 4 into l = 2 + w
That's
l = 2 + 4
l = 6
<h3>length = 6 feet</h3><h3>width = 4 feet</h3>
Hope this helps you
