W(d) = 0.112d

You wrote that “d” is the amount of snow melting. “W” is the amount of water that results from “d” cm of snow melting, so it is written as “W(d).”

To solve this equation, you must substitute the amount of snow melting, or “d” into the right side of the equation- think of the info on the left side as one variable, “W”.

Here it is broken down:

W(d) = 0.112(20)

W(d) = 2.24 cm

From 20 cm of snow, 2.24 cm of water would result.

W(d) = 0.112(73)

W(d) = 8.176

From 73 cm of snow, 8.176 cm of water would result.

Good luck!
