It snowed \frac{3}{10} foot more yesterday than today

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, At the Butler Ski Resort, it snowed 1/2 of a foot yesterday and 1/5 of a foot today

From given information,

\text{Snowed yesterday } = \frac{1}{2} \text{ foot }\\\\\text{Snowed today } = \frac{1}{5} \text{ foot }

<em><u>To find: how much more did it snow yesterday than today</u></em>

So we have to find the difference between snowed yesterday and today

\text{Difference} = \text{Snowed yesterday } - \text{ snowed today }\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5}-\frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 2}\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{5}{10}-\frac{2}{10}\\\\\text{Difference} =\frac{3}{10}

Hence it snowed \frac{3}{10} foot more yesterday than today

Pie
The graphs of y =1/x and y = 3/x – 4 can be compared by saying that c<span>ompared to the graph of y =1/x , the graph of y =3/x – 4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units down. This can be seen clearly when you graph the functions on a x-y coordinate plane.</span>
