Change in level is given by :

C = increase in level - decrease in level.

Now,

Decrease in level in March is 2 1/4 = 9/4 inches.

Increase in level in April is 1 5/8 = 13/8 inches.

Putting value of these in above equation, we get :

C = 13/8 - 9/4

C = 13/8 - 18/8

C = -5/8 inches

Therefore, the overall level after April will decrease by 5/8 inches.

Hence, option 4. is correct.

What is the median of the following string of values?<br>16, 95, 3, 37.97. 13, 27.42, 64, 14​
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

21.71

Step-by-step explanation:

1) you need to order then by the size

      3, 13, 14, 16, 27.42, 37.97 ,64, 95

2) if there is an odd amount of numbers then the median would be the center term. but if it an even number then you add the two middle terms together and divide them by 2.

     16+27.42= 43.42

     43.42 divided by 2=21.71

Hope this helped

How do i find the surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 3.5 ft. and a height of 14 ft.
Karolina [17]
The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:
2<span>π</span><span>r</span><span>h </span><span>+ </span><span>2</span><span>π</span><span>r^</span><span>2

If we substitute in the measurements that we know, you get:

2</span><span>\pi (3.5) (14) + 2</span><span>\pi (3.5)^2

If we simplify this expression, we get:

98</span><span>\pi + 24.5</span><span>\pi

If you simplify once more, you get

122.5</span><span>\pi or </span><span>≈ 384.85

Therefore, the surface area is 122.5</span>\pi or about 384.85<span>
