Answer 1

1.3 inches

Explanation:

The prediction for average amount of rainfall for the for the month during last 10 years is given as 1.3 inches

A weather forecaster reported that the total amount of rainfall for the month was 0.75 inch

The prediction for the same month this amount was 0.55 inch below the average amount of rainfall for the same month during the last ten years.

Summary table given by the forecaster =

Amount of rainfall for the month : 0.75 in.

Compared to average amount of rainfall for the month -0.55 in.

The average amount of rainfall , for this month during last ten years is to be determined

Let A be the average amount of rainfall for the month in the last ten years

The total amount of rainfall for the month = 0.75 inch

Given that this amount is 0.55 inch less than the average amount of rainfall for last 10 years hence we can write the Equation as formulated below

.75=A-0.55(1)

So the Average amount of rainfall for the for this month during last 10 years is given as A=.75+.55

A= 1.3 inches

Answer 2

• 1.3 inch

Explanation:

Given:

• Rainfall for the month = 0.75 inch
• Average amount of rainfall for same month = x
• The difference between the average and forecasted amount = 0.55 inch

Find the value of x:

• 0.75 = x - 0.55
• x = 0.75 + 0.55
• x = 1.3 inch
