Kate packs snow into 5 identical jars. Each jar represents a different depth of snow. Kate then lets the snow in each jar comple
tely melt. The table shows the height of the liquid in each jar as it relates to the original depth of snow in the jar.
Which statements are true about the relationship between the depth of the snow and the height of water in the jar after the snow is melted? Check all that apply.
The points on a graph representing the relationship lie on a line.
There is 0.4 inch of water to every 1 inch of snow.
A line through the points will pass through (0, 0).
The function relating snow depth to water depth is quadratic.
The data can be represented by f(x) = 0.2x.

2 answers:
Answer:
A, C, E
Step-by-step explanation:
From the table you can see that the water depth cahnges
for every
of snow (option B is false).
This means that the function modelling this situation is linear function (option A is true and option D is false). Let the equation of this function be Then
Subtract these two equations:
Hence,
The equation of the straight line (the graph of linear function) is (option E is true) This line passes through the point (0,0), because its coordinates satisfy the equation (option C is true).
