Last year, a total of 26 inches of rain fell in center city. this year, experts predict rainfall in center city will increase by 15% over last year's total. how many more inches of rain are predicted to fall in center city this year than last year?

Multiply last years rainfall by the percent of increase.

26 inches x 0.15 = 3.9 inches more.

Round the answer as needed.

First, we need to find 15% of last years total rainfall to estimate next years. To do this, multiply last years rain by the decimal form of 15%.

26*.15=3.9

There will be 3.9 more inches of rain predicted to fall next year.

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

i need the pts ignore this answer

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
