Correct OPTIONS:
A It is snowing at a steady rate.
B It is snowing at a rate of ½ inch per hour.
C The amount of snow is proportional to the time.
D The coordinate (2, 1) indicates that it has snowed 2 inches in 1 hour
Answer:
D The coordinate (2, 1) indicates that it has snowed 2 inches in 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the graph given, let's analyse each options provided to see which statement is ✅CORRECT or ❌ INCORRECT.
A. "It is snowing at a steady rate."
✅This is CORRECT because a straight line graph has a constant rate of change.
B. "It is snowing at a rate of ½ inch per hour."
✅This is CORRECT, because when x (time in hrs) is 1, y (snow in inches) is ½.
C. "The amount of snow is proportional to the time."
✅This is CORRECT because the line of the graph intercepts the point of origin, (0, 0).
D. "The coordinate (2, 1) indicates that it has snowed 2 inches in 1 hour"
❌This is NOT CORRECT. The coordinate (2, 1) indicates that it has snowed 1 inch in 2 hours rather.
x = 2 => time(hours)
y = 1 => snow(inches)
