Suppose that the water level of a river is 34 feet and that it is receding at a rate of 0.5 foot per day. Write an equation for the water level, L, after d days. In how many days will the water level be 26 feet?

Respuesta :

L (water level) = -0.5 d (days) +34

Place 26 into the (L) variable and solve

26= -0.5 d + 34

0.5 d = 8

d=16
