Algebra.Com's Answer #329109 by Theo(13342)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! december 31 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "jan 1 = 1 \n" ); document.write( "jan 2 = 2 \n" ); document.write( "jan 3 = 3 \n" ); document.write( "etc. \n" ); document.write( "y = amount of snow \n" ); document.write( "x = number of days since december 31st. \n" ); document.write( "equation is: \n" ); document.write( "y = 2*x + 5 \n" ); document.write( "graph would look like this: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "when x is equal to 15 (january 15th), the amount of snow on the ground will be equal to 2*15 + 5 = 35 inches.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
