In 1846 the depth of the river was 2.5 feet deep. In 1847 it rose 9%. This year, 1848, it dropped 6%. How deep is the river now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

So the answer is 2.5615 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the river is 2.5 feet deep, and when you find that 9% is, using the cross-multiplication formula to find the percent then 9% of 2.5 is 0.225, and when you add that to 2.5 you get 2.725, and when you find 6% of 2.725, you get 0.1635, and since it dropped, you subtract, and you end up with 2.5615

Hope I helped

Answer 2

The depth of the river in 1848 is 2.5615 feet.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

The % formula is used to calculate a percentage of a whole in terms of 100. You may use this formula to express a number as a fraction of 100. If you look closely, calculating percentages indicated above can be readily computed using the formula below:

Percentage = (Value/Total Value) × 100

To solve this problem, we can start by finding the depth of the river in 1847 after it rose by 9%.

Depth in 1847 = 2.5 + (9% of 2.5)

Depth in 1847 = 2.5 + 0.225

Depth in 1847 = 2.725 feet

Next, we need to find the depth of the river in 1848 after it dropped by 6%.

Depth in 1848 = 2.725 - (6% of 2.725)

Depth in 1848 = 2.725 - 0.1635

Depth in 1848 = 2.5615 feet

Therefore, the depth of the river in 1848 is 2.5615 feet.

Okay, you would know that 16 / 4 = 4.
So that solves 1 part. Next, you have to divide 2 / 4. Which would equal 0.5.

Then you add 4 to 0.5, which is 4.5!

Jack's father is 3 times older than jack. 5 years ago the sum of their ages was 34. How old is jack now?
PLS HELP ASAP!!!

Answers

Answer:

jack (with the lower case j) is 11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 5) + (3x - 5) = 34

x - 5 + 3x - 5 = 34

4x = 34 + 10

4x = 44

x = 11

So, jack = 11 years old.

Jack = 33 years old.

Answer:

the answer is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Lacy = x

Jack = 3x

(x - 5) + (3x - 5) = 34

x - 5 + 3x - 5 = 34

4x = 34 + 10

 

4x = 44

x = 11

So, Lacy = 11 years old.

Jack = 33 years old.

The distance between R and S on the coordinate grid is ___ units. (Input whole numbers only.)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find the coordinates of both r and s.  The coordinates are R coordinates. (-20 1/2 , 5) S coordinates (20,5). Since we have that written down next we have to add both -20 and 20. Before adding them you have to switch -20 to positive 20. Now you have 20 + 20. giving you 40. Since it says to put the whole number you put 40.

it is c.

explanation:

20+130+h =180

when you solve you get h=50

130+g = 180

g= 50

50+60+f = 180

f=70

as the summation of all angles in a triangle must be 180

∠H = 180 - (130 +20)

       = 180-150

         =30

as the straight line has an angle of 180

∠G= 180 - 130

       = 50

since that

∠f = 180- (50+60)

    =180- 110

    =70

answer is C

The width of a rectangular sandbox is two less than twice the length. The perimeter of the sandbox is 26 feet. Identify the length and width of the sandbox. (Remember 2l+2w=Perimeter)

Answers

[tex]l = 5 \\ w = 8[/tex]

5 + 5 + 8 + 8 = 26 and since 5 x 2 - 2 = 8 it matches with the problem

let’s say the length is x. That would mean that the width is 2x-2.

using this we would have this equation:
2x+ 2(2x-2) = 26

distribute

2x+ 4x-4= 26

add like terms

6x-4=30

add 4 to both sides

6x=30

divide

x= 5

since x is our length, the length is 5

now for the width, use the 2x-2 equation and plug in x. you should get 8

l= 5
w=8
