Due to excessive heat, can the water level in a dam decreased by 8.8 m past month. Now, the water level is 95.3 m. Which equation represents the water level, w, of the dam last month? Where was the water level last month?

Answer 1

To represent the water level, w, of the dam last month, we need to subtract 8.8 from the current water level of 95.3 m.

Therefore, the equation can be written as:

w = 95.3 m - 8.8 m

Simplifying the equation:

w = 86.5 m

So, the water level of the dam last month was 86.5 meters.
