Problem Statement:
The pre-placed blocks animate the sand decreasing from the top of the hourglass. If the ratio of the rate of sand decreasing on the top to the rate of sand increasing on the bottom is 4:1, write an expression in terms of i for the variable yBot to increase the sand on the bottom at the correct rate.
