Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question got caught off. Can't read any of the other examples. I can tell you though that ice melting is a physical change, not a chemical change.
Well first, you need to solve within the parentheses. You would get 23.8 - 14 - 8.6
Then you would subtract them in order, and your answer would be 1.2
Hello,
Let's be x the length of the 3 side (9,x,23) ==>x>0
Using inequality triangular:
9<x+23==>x>9-23==>x>-14 (done)
x<9+23==>x<32
23<x+9==>x>14
SO 14<x<32

Answer: 155 inches</h3>
This is equivalent to approximately 12.917 feet.
===================================================
Work Shown:
(10 inches)/(2 days) = (x inches)/(31 days)
10/2 = x/31
10*31 = 2*x ... cross multiply
310 = 2x
2x = 310
x = 310/2
x = 155
Keep in mind that this water is being drained on a fairly continuous basis. This means that not all of the water is sticking around (we'd hope not anyway) at the same moment in time.
Note: 155 inches = 155/12 = 12.917 feet approximately.
--------------------------
Alternative method:
If the town got 10 inches in 2 days, this means it rains at a unit rate of 10/2 = 5 inches per day.
Multiply that by 31 days and we get 5*31 = 155 inches of total rain.
