Answer:
4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
• At 2:30 p.m., the water depth was 2.6 feet.
• It is now 5:00 p.m., and the depth of the water is 3.6 feet.
So in 2.5 hours ( 5pm - 2:30pm) the water rose 1 feet (3.6 - 2.6).
Now <em><u>we can find how much water rises in 1 hour by setting up a ratio (let x be the depth increase of water in 1 hr):</u></em>

So, in 1 hour, the water level will rise 0.4 feet
So, at 6pm (1 hour from 5 pm) it will rise to 3.6 + 0.4 = 4 feet
Let S = spoon
Let K = knife
1 knife is thee times the cost of a spoon, so it would be 3S
Now you have 9S + 12K = 82.80
We can replace the K with 3S:
9S +12(3S) = 82.80
Simplify the left side:
9S + 36S = 82.80
Add:
45S = 82.80
Divide both sides by 45"
S = 82.80 / 45
S = 1.84
One spoon cost $1.84
We know one knife cost 3 times as much, so multiply the cost of a spoon by 3:
Knife = 1.84 x 3 = $5.52
