for a science fair project javier is recording the amount of water that evaporate from a bucket in a month he creates a table like this i will give point for the best answer

week 1 2/16 inch

week 2 1/16 inch


week 3 3/16 inch

week 4 2/16 inch

how much water had evaported from the bucket at the end of week 2

what was the total amount of water that evaported in the four weeks

if javier orignally put 4 inches of water in the bucket how many inches of water were left after the experment was completed

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{3}{16},\ \dfrac{1}{2}, \dfrac{7}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Javier created a table for the amount of water evaporated in each week

After two weeks, the amount of water evaporated is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2+1}{16}=\dfrac{3}{16}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

Total amount of water evaporated in four weeks is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{3}{16}+\dfrac{2}{16}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2+1+3+2}{16}=\dfrac{8}{16}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]

If Javier originally puts 4 inches of water, amount of water left in the bucket

[tex]\Rightarrow 4-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4\times 2}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8-1}{2}=\dfrac{7}{2}\ \text{inch}[/tex]
