Using linear function concepts, the graph of the Celsius-Fahrenheit relationship is linear with an intercept of 32 and slope of 1.8.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

From the table, we have that:

When the input is of 0, the output is of 32, hence the intercept is of 32.

When the input changes by 10, the output changes by 18, hence the slope is of 18/10 = 1.8.

Thus, the graph of the Celsius-Fahrenheit relationship is linear with an intercept of 32 and slope of 1.8.

Answer is 1 1/12
3(1/4 + 1/2^2)+ (2x1/12)
3/4+1/4+2/12 (you get to this part by distributing 3 throughout the parentheses)
9/12+3/12+2/12= 1 1/12 hope this helps
