Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1 x 4 = 4

16 - 4 = 12

Answer:

Snow after 4 hours: 16 Show after t hours: -1t

Step-by-step explanation:

Snow after 4 hours:

starting amount =  16

melted snow=   inches per hour×4

=1×4

=

4

final amount=  starting amount−melted snow

=  16−4

=12

​

Snow after t hours:

starting amount=  16

melted snow=  inches per hour×t

=1×t

=1t

final amount=  starting amount−melted snow  =16-1t
