Any linear equation can be written as
y = mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
m = 1/2 in this case. It represents the idea that the snow fell at a rate of 1/2 inch per hour. In other words, the snow level went up 1/2 an inch each time an hour passed by.
b = 8 is the y intercept. It's the starting amount of snow. We start off with 8 inches of snow already.
The info "snow fell for 9 hours" doesn't appear to be relevant here.
18 miles = 30 minutes
? miles = 10 minutes
cross multiply
? x 30 = 18 x 10 (180)
? = 180/30
? = 6
the city bus would cover 6 miles in 10 minutes.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
10.5x
10.5 × 45= $472.5
2.8a^2=55
a^2=55/2.8
a= square root of 55/2.8
