Answer: 1 1/4feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the depth of the water in the pool changes by −3/4 foot every hour and that the depth of the water was 5 feet when she started draining.

The depth of the water after 5 hours will be:

= 5 - 3/4(5)

= 5 - 15/4

= 5 - 3 3/4

= 1 1/4 feet

Deepak wrote out the steps to his solution of the equation startfraction 5 over 2 minus 3 x minus 5 plus 4 x equals negative sta
andre [41]

The solution is x=3/4

How can we solve given equation?

First, we will solve like terms. Then shift constant to other side and keep x on the same side to get the value of x.

We can solve given equation as shown below:

5/2-3x-5+4x=-7/4

(5-10)/2+x=-7/4

-5/2+x=-7/4

x=5/2-7/4

x= (10-7)/4

x=3/4

Hence, the solution is x=3/4.

£750 is divided between Bridget, Caroline & Sarah so that Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, and Caroline gets three ti
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: £225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sarah's amount be represented by x.

Since Caroline gets three times as much as Sarah, Caroline will get: 3x

Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, therefore Bridget will get: 2 × 3x = 6x

Sarah = x

Caroline = 3x

Bridget = 6x

Total = x + 3x + 6x = 10x

Caroline's faction is 3/10. We then multiply the fraction by £750. This will be:

= 3/10 × £750

= 0.3 × £750

= £225

Caroline will get £225
