A leak in a pool causes the height of the water to decrease by 0.25 foot over 2 hour. after the leak is fixed the height of the

5 feet

hope this helps

  5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 0.25 to both sides of the equation:

  4.75 +0.25 = x - 0.25 +0.25

  5.00 = x

The original height of the water in the pool was 5.00 feet.

(B) 5 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

if water decresed .25 feet it was then .25 feet higher originally.

if the  water is 4.75 feet now you add the .25 compared to that equalling 5 ft.

Answer5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the leak took 2 hours to fix, the original height of the pool is 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is probably the most simple "high school" problem I've seen in a while. All you have to do is move the negative 0.25 to the other side to isolate x. That gives you 4.75 + 0.25, or 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 feet

Since the height of the water is 4.75 feet, the equation is

4.75 = x + (-0.25)

To solve, add 0.25 to each side:

4.75+0.25 = x+(-0.25)+0.25

5.00 = x

The original height of the water level in pool is 5 feet

Given that , A leak in a pool causes the height of the water to decrease by 0.25 foot over 2 hours.  

After the leak is fixed, the height of the water is 4.75 feet.  

The equation 4.75 = x + (- 0.25) can be used to find x, the original height of the water in a pool.

So by solving the given equation and finding value of "x" gives the original height of water in pool

We have to find the original height of the water level in the tank.

So, let us solve the given equation

[tex]\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 4.75=x+(-0.25)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 4.75=x-0.25} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=4.75+0.25} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=5}\end{array}[/tex]

Hence, the original height of the water level is 5 feet
