Researchers in Antarctica discovered a warm sea current under a glacier that is causing the glacier to melt. The ice shelf of the glacier had a thickness, t(x)
of approximately 450 m when it was first discovered. The thickness of the ice shelf is decreasing at an average rate of 0.06 m per day.
Write the function which can be used to find the thickness of the ice shelf in meters, x, days since the discovery.
Write it in form mx+b
but with your numbers and variables. No spaces, no long dash for minus. Just the normal - if you need a minus or negative. ex. 2x-4 or 6-5x etc.
The equation is t (x)=
1 answer
450 - 0.06x
