A table contains the ordered pairs ( 3, 42.25) and (5, 50.75). If the relationship in the table is linear, explain how to find the initial value

0.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth, d of snow (in cm) that accumulates in Harper's yard during the first h hours of a snowstorm can be calculated using the equation:

d=5h

When d=1cm, we want to determine the value of h.

1=5h

h=1/5=0.2

Therefore, it takes 0.2 hours for 1 centimeter of snow to accumulate in Harper's yard.
