Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's not perfectly clear, but you seem to be saying that each week, the
pond becomes 3% deeper than it was THE PREVIOUS WEEK.
If I'm reading that correctly, then the pond is 10-ft deep when the rainy
season begins, and after 'x' weeks later, the depth is
D = 10 (1.03)^x feet.
After 8 weeks, the depth is D = 10 (1.03)⁸ = 12.67 feet .
rounded to the nearest foot, D = 13 ft.

Answer:
21.25 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
In miles per second, the speed of the jet is ...
(720 mi/h)/(3600 s/h) = 1/5 mi/s
The speed of the sound is the same:
(1 mi)/(5 s) = 1/5 mi/s
Then the rate of closure between the airplane and the sound is ...
(1/5 mi/s) +(1/5 mi/s) = 2/5 mi/s
To find the time required to close a gap of 8 1/2 miles, we can use the relation ...
time = distance/speed
time = (8.5 mi)/(0.4 mi/s) = 21.25 s
The pilot will hear the thunder 21.25 seconds after the flash.
