Snow Melting Patterns and Equations

The video tutorial explains a scenario where 12 inches of snow melts over a week, with 2 inches melting each day. It guides viewers through creating an equation and graph to represent the relationship between the days and the amount of snow left. The tutorial defines variables, constructs a table, and plots points to illustrate the linear relationship, ultimately showing how to visualize and understand the snow melting process through mathematical representation.
