If a number is decreased by 5 and the result is is twice the original number-What is the number?
I had to call my son the computer whiz in LA to help me out on this one. They owed him some time in the massively parallel processor complex where he works, so he logged in and ran this one for me last night. Here's what he came up with:If I drop one of something blindly into a bucket and then I look in the bucket and there are two of them in there, I can logically conclude that the thing that was in there before must have been exactly like the thing I dropped in, and that there used to be one of them where now there are two of them. So the original number was also -5, just like the amount you added.

Will colder night temperatures and warm days cause significant evaporation over a week or would you consider that a leak issue?
Evaporation rates vary with weather conditions. The BEST way to simply determine whether the pool has a leak is called the 'bucket test'. 1) Partially fill a bucket with the pool water and mark or measure the water level in the bucket. 2) mark or measure the water level in the pool(does not have to be the same level as water in bucket) 3)Place the bucket on the top step of the pool and leave for 24 hours (or for as long as you like, but sufficiently long to see a change in water level due to evaporation). The fall in the two water levels, pool and bucket, should be exactly the same (eg: 0.5" drop in pool waterlevel and 0.5" drop in bucket water level). If the water level in the pool has fallen further than has the water level in the bucket, the pool has a leak.

Why does water level constanly drop after closing pool for season when liner was just replaced thinking it had a leak and the same thing is happening?
It sounds like evaporation ANSW:: It could be evaporation. Perform a "bucket test" Place a bucket in the pool add water to it marking the level of the water on both the inside and outside the bucket ~ which would be the pool water level. In about 12 hrs. recheck both levels. If they remain the same = no leak. If pool level drops more than the bucket level = leak. Note: The reason for placing the bucket in the pool rather than on the deck next to the pool is because the bucket water assumes the same temp as the pool so they react in the same or like manner. If the bucket were placed on the deck next to the pool then the water in the bucket would evaporate much faster on the hot deck. You may also want to trace your plumbing to and from the pool and equipment pad. Look for traces of water, grass that is greener than surrounding area etc. k
