At the beginning of a storm, a pond was 16 cm deep. during the storm, the depth increased by 1.5 cm every hour for 8 h. what graph represents the depth of the pond over this time period?

Let's assume

depth of pound over time  is h cm

time in hours as t

We are given

At the beginning of a storm, a pond was 16 cm deep

so, we get

so,

we can use formula

the depth increased by 1.5 cm every hour for 8 h

so, we get

so, we can plug these values

and we get

now, we can draw graph

Graph:

12cm

the answer is d

graph them on a graphing calculator, press 2nd trace. select intersect. hit enter until it says answer. ti 84 works best
