What is the algebraic expression for this story problem?A tank is filling with water from a natural spring well. Two days ago the water was 10 feet deep, and yesterday the water was 12 feet deep. Assume that the water depth continues to rise at this same rate after today.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 1.       Give the algebraic expression of the given story:
=> A tank is filling a water from natural Spring.
=> 2 days ago water measured 10 feet deep
=> yesterday the water measured 12 feet deep
=> And the water rises the same amount each day.
Algebraic expression is:
=> Since the filling of water in the tank is constant per day which means the water rises 2 feet per additional day.
=> let’s assign a variable for the number of days. Let’s have X
Now, let’s add the total of water depth 2 days ago until today.
=> 10(2 days ago) + 2(yesterday) + 2(today)
=> 14 feet
Then the algebraic expression would be:
=> 14 + 2x
where x is equals to the number of days that will pass.

Answer:

We can't make plots here, but I can give an explanation.

A scatter plot provides a visual representation of the showcased data as opposed to a numerical display, as such allowing more ease of use when extracting data.

A worker is hired for $80 a day on the condition that if business is slow, the worker will only receive half pay.  At the end of 20 days, the worker receives $1,320.  On how many days was business slow?

Answers

7 slow days

You know the worker worked a total of 20 days, some at $80 per day, and some at $40 per day.  After the 20 days, the worker was paid $1320.

x = days paid full time ($80)
y = days paid half time ($40)

you have two unknowns, so you'll need two equations to solve, from the problem statement, we can derive the following relationships:

($80)x + ($40)y = $1320
x + y = 20 days

x = 20 - y
80(20 - y) + 40y = 1320
1600 - 80y + 40y = 1320
1600 - 40y = 1320
1600 - 1320 = 40y
280 = 40y
y = 280/40 = 7

thus 7 days paid half time (i.e. slow days)

verify your solution is correct
y = 7
x = 20 - 7 = 13
80(13) + 40(7) = 1320 [OK]



How can i evaluate (-7/10+0.15)÷(-0.125) please help

Answers

You can evaluate his by first converting -7/10 into a decimal which would be -0.7 From there, you add -0.7 and 0.15 and divide that by -0.125.
First change all fractions into decimals. Then you PEMDAS to solve. PEMDAS is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction.So you add the two decimals together and divide it by the other decimal.
