This question is Incomplete

Increases in snow levels are recorded with positive numbers. Decreases in snow levels are recorded with negative numbers. After a winter storm, the depth of the snow on Cherry Street was 10 cm. But then, the snow started melting at a rate of 1/3 per hour. What was the depth of the snow on Cherry Street after 3 hours?

9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth of snow = 10cm

Rate of melting = 1/3 cm per hour

1 hour = 1/3 cm

3 hours = x cm

Cross Multiply

= 3 hours × 1/3cm = 1 hour × x cm

x cm = 3 hours × 1/3cm/1 hour

x cm = 1 cm

Hence in 3 hours, 1 cm of snow would have melted.

Therefore, the depth of the snow on Cherry Street after 3 hours is

10cm - 1 cm

= 9 cm
