Level 2 Graphs Learning Workbook 33
- A river level rises rapidly during a flood which started at noon on Monday 5 March. The initial depth of the river was 3.2 m. The maximum depth of the river was 4 m, which occurred at noon, 1 day later. By day 3, the depth had dropped to 3 m. The graph of the depth of the river is shown.
Part of this graph is to be modelled by a hyperbola of the form where is the depth in metres and is the time in days since the rain started.
a. Write down the equation of the hyperbola which could be used to model the depth of the river after it had been raining for 3 days. Round and to the nearest integer.
