Math Problem Statement
Solution
To determine how much snow was on the ground when the storm started, we need to look at the point where time on the graph.
From the graph:
- At , the amount of snow on the ground is 0 inches. This can be seen at the origin of the graph where the snow accumulation begins.
Thus, there was 0 inches of snow on the ground when the storm started.
Would you like further explanation, or do you have any questions?
Here are five related questions to consider:
- How can we calculate the rate of snow accumulation during the first few hours?
- At what time did the snowfall stop, according to the graph?
- How much snow was accumulated by the time the snow stopped for the first time?
- What was the total snow accumulation after the snow resumed and stopped again?
- How can we calculate the constant rates of snowfall during the storm?
Tip: Always check the axis labels and their units when interpreting graphs—this ensures that you understand what the graph represents.
