HELP ME ASAP PLS Consider: Round off to three (3) decimal places Answer properly 9. The catchment of the reservoir is 30 km². Uniform precipitation of 0.75 cm/h for 4 hours was observed on a particular day. 60% of the runoff reached the reservoir. A river carrying a flow of 1.0 m³/s is taken from the reservoir. The rate of evaporation was 0.65 mm/h/m². Assuming seepage loss to be 40% of evaporation loss, find the change in reservoir level (in meters) for 8 hours in the next, if the water spread of the reservoir was 0.95 km².
