The number of inches of rain fall in two minutes is [tex]y=0.006[/tex]
Explanation:
Let x denotes the minutes of rainfall during a storm.
Let y denotes the number of inches of rain during a storm.
The number of inches of rain y after x minutes of rainfall during a storm can be modeled by [tex]y=0.003x[/tex]
We need to determine the amount of inches of rain falls in two minutes.
The number of inches of rain fall in two minutes can be determined by substituting [tex]x=2[/tex] in the modeled equation [tex]y=0.003x[/tex]
Thus, we have,
[tex]y=0.003(2)[/tex]
Multiplying, we get,
[tex]y=0.006[/tex]
Thus, the number of inches of rain fall in two minutes is [tex]y=0.006[/tex]
