Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
(x + 5) + (-4x - 2) + (2x - 1)
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
- Combine like terms (x): -x + 5 - 2 - 1
- Combine like terms (Z): -x + 2
Use the slope formula

and plug in the values for x and y.
In this question, you are given the width( 20 miles), the length(28 miles) and the height( 1 inch). You are asked to count the rain water volume which was going with formula length x width x height. But the unit asked is ft, so you need to convert them all. The calculation would be:
Water volume= length x width x height
Water volume= 20 miles x 5280ft/miles x 28 miles x 5280ft/miles x 1inch x 1ft/12inch
Water volume = 1300992000 cubic ft.
