Answer:

So the answer is 2.5615 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the river is 2.5 feet deep, and when you find that 9% is, using the cross-multiplication formula to find the percent then 9% of 2.5 is 0.225, and when you add that to 2.5 you get 2.725, and when you find 6% of 2.725, you get 0.1635, and since it dropped, you subtract, and you end up with 2.5615

Hope I helped

Solve for U -8u = - 16/3
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

u = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply divide both sides by -8:

u = (-16/3)/-8

If you don't have a calc, use KCF:

u = (-16/3)(-1/8)

u = 16/24

u = 2/3
