Answer: 1 1/4feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the depth of the water in the pool changes by −3/4 foot every hour and that the depth of the water was 5 feet when she started draining.
The depth of the water after 5 hours will be:
= 5 - 3/4(5)
= 5 - 15/4
= 5 - 3 3/4
= 1 1/4 feet
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to use the properties shown below to solve this:
1. ![\sqrt[n]{x^a} =x^{\frac{a}{n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Ea%7D%20%3Dx%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bn%7D%7D)
2. 
3. 
Area of a triangle is given by 1/2 * base * height, so we do that and simplify:

Answer:
49/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Inches below ground= 3 1/2 inches
Plant's full height=15 3/4 inches
Height above ground = 15 3/4 inches -3 1/2 inches
63/4 - 7/2
63-14/4
49/4 inches
