The water level in Rocky's lake changes on an average of -7/16 every 3 years. Based on the rate of the level, how much will the water level change after a year

-7/ 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Average change in water level per 3 years = - 7/16

This means the water level decreases by - 7/16 on average every 3 years

The change in water level after a year will be ;

-7/16 = 3

x = 1

Cross multiply ;

3x = - 7/16

Divide both sides by 3

x = -7/16 ÷ 3

x = - 7/16 * 1/3

x = - 7 / 48

Hence, water level will change by - 7/48 after a year.

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
