Thomas measured the amount of rain that fell during a particularly rainy day in Louisiana. He measured the rain every hour over the
course of a few hours. Rain is usually measured in millimeters by
meteorologists, so Thomas decided that he would use the same
unit of measurement. After his final measurement, the total
amount of rain that fell was 50 mm.
Part A.
Create a function that Thomas can use to represent the total
amount of rain that fell, A, as a function of time in hours, h.
Part B.
Use function notation to represent the following statements:
(i) Five hours after Thomas began measuring the rain, the amount
of rain was 4 centimeters.
(ii) The amount of rain collected 150 minutes after he started
measuring was the same amount as his measurement after 180
minutes.
