A lake near the Arctic Circle is covered by a 222-meter-thick sheet of ice during the cold winter months. When spring arrives, the warm air gradually melts the ice, causing its thickness to decrease at a constant rate. After 333 weeks, the sheet is only 1.251.251, point, 25 meters thick. Let yyy represent the ice sheet's thickness (in meters) after xxx weeks.
Complete the equation for the relationship between the thickness and number of weeks.
y=y=y, equals

The question is a little incorrect, the ice sheet thickness should be 2m and not 222m.

The required function formula is,

S(t) = 2 - 0.25 t

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the initial thickness of the ice sheet = 2 meters,

After 3 weeks, the thickness of ice sheet = 1.25 meters

Total changes in the thickness in 3 weeks = 2 - 1.25 = 0.75 meters,

⇒ Total changes in the thickness in 1 weeks = 0.75/3 = 0.25 meters,

Since, the ice is melting with the constant rate.

⇒ The rate of ice decreasing = 0.25 meters per week.

⇒ Total changes in t weeks = 0.25 t meters

The new thickness of ice after t weeks = Initial thickness - Total changes in t weeks.

⇒ S(t) = 2 - 0.25 t

Which is the required function's formula.
