Due to excessive heat, the water level in the dam, decreased by 8.8 m last month now the water level is 95.3 m which equations represent the water level w of the dam last month? What was the water level last month?

Answer 1

The equation representing the water level w of the dam last month can be written as:
w = 95.3 m + 8.8 m

To find the water level last month, we need to subtract 8.8 m from the current water level of 95.3 m:
w = 95.3 m - 8.8 m
w = 86.5 m

Therefore, the water level in the dam last month was 86.5 meters.
