An artist creates an ice sculpture for an outdoor exhibit. The sculpture was initially 48 meters high, but after being placed outdoors, it began to melt, with its height decreasing at a constant rate over time. The sculpture will melt completely, reaching a height of 0 meters, 6 days after it is placed outdoors.
Select for H1 the height of the sculpture, in meters, after 1 day outdoors and select for H2 the height of the sculpture, in meters, after 4 days outdoors. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Official Solution:
The sculpture melts from 48 meters to 0 meters over 6 days. Since the height decreases at a constant rate, the sculpture loses:
48 meters / 6 days = 8 meters per day.
After 1 day:
48 – 1 * 8 = 40 meters.
After 4 days:
48 – 4 * 8 = 16 meters.
Correct answer:
H1 "40"
H2 "16"
