starting at noon, william observed the amount of snow on his lawn during a blizzard. he
created a graph to represent how many inches of snow were on the lawn at x minutes past noon.
whats the meaning of the point (60,5.1)?

Explanation:

In a coordinate pair \((x,y)\), \(x\) represents the input (in this case, minutes past noon) and \(y\) represents the output (in this case, inches of snow). So for the point \((60,5.1)\), the \(x -\)value \(60\) is the number of minutes past noon and the \(y -\)value \(5.1\) is the corresponding amount of snow.

Answer:

60 minutes after noon, there were \(5.1\) inches of snow on the lawn.
