Answer:
- Grayson had 10 inches of snow in his lawn
- the snow falls at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour
- no snow was melting
- the snow has fallen for 3 hours
Let y be the height of the snow in the lawn
Grayson had 10 inches at the beginning (at t=0) so y= 10
3 hours passed so y= 10 + 3*0.5 = 11.5 inches
Grayson had 11.5 inches after three hours
Assuming that the snow continued to fall for an unkhown time t
y = 0.5*t + 10
we had 10 at the beginning so we add 10 (+10)
the snow is growing by 0.5 inches in the single hour so we multiply by 0.5
t is the time and it can 4, 5, 6 ...... hours
Just like a function :
- 0.5 is the slope
- t is the variable
- 10 is the y-intercept
Um there needs to be another equation
The answer is 5.5 m.
Cube
Volume = length x width x height
Since the length, width and the height are the same in cube, the formula can be:
Volume = length^3
Let x metres be the side length of the cube.
166 = x^3
x = ∛166
x = 5.495864.....
x = 5.5 (nearest tenth)
the anser to that problem is -1/3
the sign would probably be a negative. imagine this - - - - - - and then + + +, cancel out the negatives and plus then you are left with more negatives than positive so the sign will take the negative sign.
