Question

use your equation to help you find the height of the snow after 10 hours. the number of hours is represented by x, so start by substituting 10 for x in the equation.

$s = 4 + \frac{1}{5}x$
$s = 4 + \frac{1}{5} \cdot \square$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute x=10 into equation

$S = 4 + \frac{1}{5} \cdot 10$

Step2: Calculate the product term

$\frac{1}{5} \cdot 10 = 2$

Step3: Add the constant term

$S = 4 + 2$

Answer:

$S=6$
The value for the blank is 10, and the height of the snow after 10 hours is 6 cm.
