Answer:

a) Equation for Snow Dome Ski Resort:

I_s = 65+t

Equation for Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort:

I_m = 74+\frac{t}{2}

b) After 19 hours, Snow dome will have more snow.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial snow at Snow Dome Ski Resort = 65 inches

Snowing rate at Snow Dome Ski Resort = 1 inch per hour

Initial snow at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = 74 inches

Initial snow at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = \frac{1}{2} inch per hour

a) To write equations that show amount of snow at each resort.

Let the time in hours be represented by t.

Snow increased in t hours by snowing at Snow Dome Ski Resort = 1\times t = t inches per hour

Snow increased in t hours by snowing at Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort = \frac{1}{2}\times t = \frac{t}{2} inches per hour

Equation for Snow Dome Ski Resort:

I_s = 65+t

Equation for Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort:

I_m = 74+\frac{t}{2}

b) Time at which Snow Dome has more snow.

Using the above equations, we can write the following inequality:

65+t>74+\dfrac{t}{2}\\\Rightarrow t-\dfrac{t}{2}>74-65\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{t}{2}>9\\\Rightarrow t>18\ hours

After 18 hours have passed, they will have equal amount of snow.

After 19 hours, Snow dome will have more snow.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

3 saves in the second game.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of saves in both the games is 11.

The number of saves in first games is 8.

The number of saves in second game = Total number of saves - Number of saves in first game

The number of saves in second game = 11 - 8

Therefore the number of saves in the second game = 3 saves
