Answer:

40 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the height of water in a pool decreased 5 inches per week.

This means that we can form the equation y=-5x, since the amount of water remaining is proportionate to the amount of weeks that have passed.

We know x=8, since we need to find the change for 8 weeks.

y = -5\cdot 8

-5 \cdot 8 = -40

y=-40

The change will be the absolute value of -40, which just makes it positive, so 40.

Hope this helped!
