Answer:

During the first hour, the water change was <em><u>2 feet (or 14 feet)</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the level of water in a water tank was 16 feet, and that by 8 hours, it was <em>empty</em>. To find the <u>change</u> in the water level per hour, we need to <u>divide</u> 16 by 8.

16 ÷ 8 = 2

Therefore, during the first hour, the water change was <em><u>2 feet (or 14 feet)</u></em>

Hope this helps! :D

1 . The lengths of the legs of a right triangle are 25 cm and 60 cm. What is the length of the hypotenuse?
Svetlanka [38]
a^{2}+ b^{2} = c^{2} that is, hypotenuse.
Therefore, let the length of the hypotenuse be 'x.' 
25^{2}+ 60^{2}= x^{2}
625+3600=x^{2}
4225=x^{2}
Therefore,
\sqrt{4225}=x
65=x
The length of the hypotenuse is B.65 centimetres.
