There was a depth of 10 inches of snow on the lawn when the storm ended and then it started melting at a rate of 0.5 inches per hour. Make a table of values and then write an equation for S,S, in terms of t,t, representing the depth of snow on Gavin's lawn, in inches, tt hours after the snow stopped falling.

Answer:

s (t) = 12 - 0.75t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The snow started melting at a rate of 0.75 inches per hour and it is known that 4 hours  after the storm ended, after the storm ended, the depth of snow was down to 9 inches.

Snow melted in 4 hours =

Initial depth of snow = 9 + 3 inches = 12 inches.

Now, depth of snow on Tristan's lawn = Initial depth -0.75(Number of hours)

Let S(t) be the depth of snow on Tristan's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling.
