Possible question:

The water level of the Arizona Canal at 43rd Ave is 105 feet. The canal recedes 0.1 (feet of water each year. Which equation below best represents this situation?

Answer:

105 - 0.1x

Explanation:

Given that :

Depth of canal = 105 feets

Recede rate = 0.1

Let number of years = x

Since the canal, recedes, then, the depth of the canal reduces.

Hence, the required equation is :

Depth of canal - recede rate * number of years

105 - 0.1x
