You just add the number together
Answer:
The water falls a total length of 2,425 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate the total length of the waterfall, we will find the sum of the three parts of the waterfall.
Length of upper fall = 1430 feet
Length of middle cascade = 675 feet
Length of lowe fall = 320 feet
Total length of fall = (Length of upper fall) + (Length of middle cascade) + (Length of lowe fall)
= 1430 + 675 + 320 = 2,425 feet
Total length that the water falls = 2,425 feet
-18 + x = 11
+18. +18

x = 29
