Question

On Saturday,rain fell at a rate of 1.5 inches per hour. Write a equation to show the relationship between the number of hours,h,and Saturday’s rain fall ,r.

Answer 1

we can write the problem as follows...

1.5in=1hr
or
1.5r=h

Answer 2

Answer: r = 1.5 h

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information

Rainfall rate= 1.5 inches per hour

h = hours

So, to calculate Saturday's rainfall rate (r) we have to multiply the rain rate (1.5) by the number of hours passes (h).

Mathematically speaking:

r = 1.5 h
