Work Step by Step
The graph is shown.
(a) What happened shortly after noon on Tuesday?
The time started at Sunday noon with $t=0$, so Tuesday noon is at $t=2$
The snow fall reached a local minimum at $t=2.1, h=3.7in$ which means that
there was new snow accumulating after that time.
(b) Was there ever more than 5 in. of snow on the ground? If so, on what day(s)?
No, the curve shows that no snow fall ever reached above 5 in.
(c) On what day and at what time (to the nearest hour) did the snow disappear completely?
The height reached zero at about $t=6.5$ which corresponds to Saturday's midnight.
