Use the image to answer the question.
A scatterplot on a coordinate plane of quadrant 1 is titled as Snow Accumulation in Inches per Hour.
"The plane shows the x-axis, labeled as Hours, ranging from 0 to 6 in increments of 1, and the y-axis, labeled as Snow Accumulation in Inches, ranging from 0 to 12 in increments of 1. Six points are plotted and an upward line is drawn through or near the points. The line passes approximately through the following unlabeled points: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1 comma 1.5 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 4 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 5 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 7.5 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 6 comma 10 right parenthesis."
A meteorologist collected data on a recent snowfall. The meteorologist graphed the data and found the equation of the trend line to be y=1.7x+0.1. If the snowfall continues at this pace, use the equation to predict the number of inches of snow after 10 hours. Round to the nearest tenth.
