During a snowstorm, Eva tracked the amount on the ground. When the storm being, there was no snow on the ground. Snow feel at a constant rate of 3 inches per hour until 6 inches had fallen. The storm then stopped for 5 hours and then started again at a constant rate of 2 inches per hour for the next 2 hours. As soon as the storm stopped again the sun came out and melted the snow for the next 2 hours at a constant rate of 4 inches per hours

2 inches of snow was left on the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of snow on the ground we can take it one step at a time. Since there was no snow on the ground we can start at a level of 0. Then it snowed until 6 inches of snow had fallen, so we can add that to our total.

0 + 6 = 6 inches

Next, it snowed for 2 more hours at a rate of 2 inches per hour, meaning we multiply this by 2 hours and add to the total amount of snow that was already on the ground.

(2*2) + 6 = 10 inches

Lastly, the sun came out and melted the snow on the ground for 2 hours at a rate of 4 inches per hour. Since it is melting the snow, this means that it is subtracting the snow from the total. So we would have to multiply the rate (4 inches per hour) by the number of hours and then subtract that from the amount of snow on the ground.

10 - (4*2) = 2 inches

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
