To calculate the density of a substance, we use this formula
d=m/v
d=density
m=mass
v=volume
To calculate the eccentricity of an ellipse, we use this formula
eccentricity = distance between foci length of major axis
To calculate the rate of change of snowfall, we would use this
formula
Rate of change = change in field time
It snowed 20 inches, in 2 days. What is the rate of change of snow?
