Question 480562: Write the equation for this situation.
Durning the month of january, the depth,d, of snow in inches at the base of one ski resort could be approximated by adding 5 to twice the number of days,t, since december 31st. the graph the equation and use the graph to determine the depth of snow on january 15 Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! december 31 = 0
jan 1 = 1
jan 2 = 2
jan 3 = 3
etc.
y = amount of snow
x = number of days since december 31st.
equation is:
y = 2*x + 5
graph would look like this:
when x is equal to 15 (january 15th), the amount of snow on the ground will be equal to 2*15 + 5 = 35 inches.
