Answer:
x
19/6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply both sides by 6 (the LCM of 6,3)
5/2 + 3-x <= 2(x-2)
2. Simplify 5/2+3-x to 11/2-x
11/2 - x<=2 (x-2)
3. Expand.
11/2-x<= 2x-4
4. Add x to both sides.
11/2<= 2x-4+x
5. Simplify 2x-4+x to 3x-4.
11/2<=3x-4
6. Add 4 to both sides.
11/2+4<=3x
7. Simplify 11/2+4 to 19/2
19/2<=3x
8. Divide both sides by 3
19/2 /3 <=x
9. Simplify 19/2 /3 to 19/2*3
19/2*3<=x
10. Simplify 2*3 to 6
19/6<=x
11. Switch sides.
x>= 19/6
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The correct answer is $8532.17
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating investments with compound interests is as follows:

Where:
R is the annual interest rate,
t is the number of times the investment is to be compounded in a year,
n is the number of years,
P is the principal amount invested.
Replacing in the formula with the given values you have:

X is equall to 9. Very simple, just look carefully.
9:16 -> 3:8
How?
Divide each side by 2 (the GCF).
10:12 -> 5:6
How?
Divide each side by 2 (the GCF).
20:16 -> 5:4
How?
Divide each side by 4 (the GCF).
24:36 -> 2:3
How?
Divide each side by 12 (the GCF).
-(3*8)+6=-18
the water level decreased by 18 inches.
