Question

During a snowstorm, Madeline tracked the amount of snow on the ground. When the storm began, there were 3 inches of snow on the ground. Snow fell at a constant rate of 1 inch per hour until another 2 inches had fallen. The storm then stopped for 3 hours and then started again at a constant rate of 2 inches every 3 hours for the next 9 hours. When the storm stopped again, the sun came out and melted the snow for the next 2 hours at a constant rate of 3 inches per hour. Make a graph showing the inches of snow on the ground over time using the data that Madeline collected.

Answer 1

The graph depicts that at the end of the snowstorm, there was 5 inches of snow left. See the attached graph.

How many hours did the snow fall?

It is not be noted that the total amount of hours which the snow fell is:

2 + 9 = 11 hours.

Although the graph depicts a peak of 14 hours, recall that there were three hours when the snow didn't fall.

While the maximum depth of the snow was 11 inches.
