Some water in Eli's swimming pool leaked out of a small hole. In 8 hours, the water's height changed by -56 centimeters. If the pool lost water at the same rate per hour, how did the water's height change each hour?
Which shows the correct quotient and answer?
O (-56) : 8 = -64; the height went down 64 centimeters each hour.
O (56) : 8 = -48; the height went down 48 centimeters each hour.
O(-56) : 8 = 7; the height went up 7 centimeters each hour.
O -56): 8 = -7; the height went down 7 centimeters each hour.
