Question

At the beginning of a snowstorm, Madeline had 11 inches of snow on her lawn. The snow then began to fall at a constant rate of 0.5 inches per hour. Assuming no snow was melting, how much snow would Madeline have on her lawn 5 hours after the snow began to fall? How much snow would Madeline have on her lawn after tt hours of snow falling?

Answer 1

13.5 inches of snow

Answer 2

You would just take .5x5 which would be 2.5 inches without the snow melting it would add up to 13.5in the last part with the tt I’m not sure but it follows the same principle .5x(Time)+the original amount will give you the answer
