Question 45189: How do I write a linear relationship that describes the outside temperature, T, as a function of the number of hours since 8:00 a.m. At 8:00 a.m. the outside temperature was 76 degrees F and each hour the temperature rose 3 degrees? Thanks for your help, I don't know where to start. Answer by Nate(3500) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Slope: 3
Y-intercept: (at 8:00 a.m., so zero for the y-value) 76
Equation:
where is the temperature in fahrenheit and is the hours from 8:00 a.m.
