Answer:

5.625 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Rainfall in inches (P) = 8 inches

The runoff volume (in inches) Q = ???

The curve number CN = 80

Recall that: The runoff volume can be calculated by using the formula:

Q = \dfrac{(P-0.2S)^2}{(P+0.8S)}    for P > 0.2S

Q = 0                     for P < 0.2S

S = \dfrac{1000}{CN}-10

where:

curve number CN = 80

S = \dfrac{1000}{80}-10

S = 2.5 inches

Since the rainfall (P) is greater than 0.25

Then:

Q = \dfrac{(P-0.2S)^2}{(P+0.8S)}  

Q = \dfrac{(8-0.2(2.5))^2}{(8+0.8(2.5))}

Q = \dfrac{(8-0.5)^2}{(8+2)}

Q = \dfrac{(7.5)^2}{(10)}

Q = \dfrac{(56.25)}{(10)}

Q = 5.625 inches

Thus, the runoff volume = 5.625 inches

A. Translate each of the following into algebraic expressions: (1 point each)
myrzilka [38]
A. Translate each of the following into algebraic expressions: (1 point each) 1.x plus y squared ---> x + y^2
2.8 times a number, x, decreased by y  ---> 8x - y
3.the sum of x and y, squared ---> (x + y)^2
4.3 times the difference of x and y ---> 3( x - y)
5.6 less than x cubed --- > x^3 - 6


B. Translate the following phrases into algebraic expressions. Explain, in complete sentences, the difference between the two. (3 points)

´twice the sum of x and y ---> 2(x + y)
´the sum of twice x and y ---> 2x + y

The first one adds first x and y, and then doubles the result, while the second one first doubles de value of x and the adds y.


C. Create your own example of a mathematical phrase you might hear in the real world and provide the translation for it. Be sure to identify what part of the phrase i

The sales of this year exceeded the sales of last year in tweny millions.

y = x + 20,000,000, where x represents the sales of last year and y represents the sales of this year,
