Writing algebraic expressions
Answer:
0.2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The depth, d of snow (in cm) that accumulates in Harper's yard during the first h hours of a snowstorm can be calculated using the equation:
d=5h
When d=1cm, we want to determine the value of h.
1=5h
h=1/5=0.2
Therefore, it takes 0.2 hours for 1 centimeter of snow to accumulate in Harper's yard.
The equation is of the form y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c just a constant. In this example, m=-5 and c=-2/3, so the slope is -5. The -2/3 is just a vertical offset and is irrelevant.
