!!HELP: 20 POINTS!!At the end of a snow storm, Jace saw there was a lot of snow on his front lawn. The temperature increased and

the snow began to melt at a steady rate. The depth of snow on Jace's lawn, in inches, can be modeled by the equation S=15-1.5t,where t is the time, in hours, after the snow stopped falling. What is the y-intercept of the equation and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem?

Answer:

the y-intercept is 15 which is the initial total depth of the snow at t=0 hours.

The rate of melting is 1.5inches per hour.  It will take 10 hours at the melting rate given of 1.5 to melt all the snow.

Step-by-step explanation:

the y-intercept is 15, and it might mean that the total depth of the snow is 15 inches.

The rate of melting is 1.5inches per hour.

At time = 0, S=15 - 1.5t = 15 - 1.5(0) = 15 inches to start

At time = 10, S=15 - 1.5t = 15 - 1.5(10) = 0 inches; meaning all snow has melted and it took 10 hours.

Does anyone know this??

Answer:

see below (I hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is simply all the y values of a function. Remember, a closed dot signifies ≤ or ≥ whereas an open dot signifies < or >. We see that the minimum y value is -11, and since it has a closed dot, we can write y ≥ -11. From the graph, the maximum y value is 11 and since it has an open dot, we can write y < 11, therefore, the final answer is -11 ≤ y < 11.

The answer is 73 because you solve 9^ 2 which is 81 then multiply 2 times 4 which is 8 then subtract 81 and 8 which is 73
