The amount s (in inches) of snow that fell during a snowstorm varied directly with the duration d (in hours) of the storm.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "s = k*d
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\" using \"In the first 2 hours of the storm 5 inches of snow fell.\"
\n" ); document.write( "5 = k*2
\n" ); document.write( "k = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Write a direct variation equation that relates d and s.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "s = (5/2)d
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "How many inches of snow fell in 6 hours?
\n" ); document.write( "s = (5/2)*6
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "snow = 15 inches
