At the end of a snow storm, Jacob saw there was a lot of snow on his front lawn. The temperature increased and the snow began to melt at a steady rate. Let SS represent the depth of snow on Jacob's lawn, in inches, tt hours after the snow stopped falling. A graph of SS is shown below. Write an equation for SS then state the slope of the graph and determine its interpretation in the context of the problem.

In the first box, B; in the second box, A; and in the third box, C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides marked on the triangle would be ranked in order from least to greatest as

n+3, 2n, 3n-2.

This is because for numbers greater than 3 (we are told that n is greater than or equal to 4), adding 3 to a number is less than multiplying it by 2.

Multiplying a number by 2 is less than multiplying a number by 3 then subtracting 2.

To test, use 4:

n+3 = 4+3 = 7; 2n = 2(4) = 8; 3n-2 = 3(4)-2 = 12-2 = 10.

The angles associated with these sides are across from them.  The angle across from the side marked n+3, AC, is angle B.  The angle across from the side marked 2n, BC, is angle A.  The angle across from the side marked 3n-2, AB, is angle C.
