Answer:
The river is 3.15 feet deep.
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's recognize what we need to find: the depth of the river
We know last year the river was 4.2 feet deep, but it dropped 25%. This means we also need to find how much it dropped. To find this, we need to know what 25% of 4.2 is. Write an equation for this.
y = 25% of 4.2
y = 0.25 • 4.2
y = 1.05
This means that the river dropped 1.05 feet. To know its depth now, we need to subtract 1.05 from 4.2. Write an equation for this.
d = 4.2 - 1.05
d = 3.15
The river is 3.15 feet deep.

The perimeter of the circle is also known as the circumference that said figure out what the diameter is and multiply that by pi (3.14)
2x - 4y = 10
7x - 9y = 12
_________
9x - 5y = 2
To find percent error, you subtract the actual number from your estimate, take the absolute value, and divide by the actual number.
l 96 - 118 l
l -22 l
l 22 l
l 22 l / 118
0.19% (this was rounded)
