What we know:
12 hour period from 8pm to 8am
temperature dropped from 8°F to 16°F from 8pm to 8am

We need to find temperature at 4 am.

We can start by setting up points:
8pm is are starting point with 8°F, we can express it as (0,8), 0 represents initial time from 0 to 12 hour span.
8am is the ending point with 16°F, we can express it as (12,16), 12 represents the end time of 0 to 12 hours span.
We will use these points to find slope.
slope=m=(16-8)/(12-0)=8/12=2/3

Now, we can set up an expression to find any temperature at a specific time.  Aslo, x represents the hours not the the specific time of 4am. We will use 8 since 4am is the 8th hour of the 12 hour span. Using slope of 2/3 and the y intercept of (0,8) since we were already at 8°F at the initial time of 0 we have the function:

f(x)=2/3x+8 

f(8)=2/3(8)+8= 40/3≈13.3°

The sign below is located at the start of Pinecone trail and shows the distances from the sign to different points of interest a
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Total distance = 53/4 miles = 13.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Sage hiked from the start of the trail to Lookout Point.

Distance = 8 3/4 miles = 35/4 miles

She then hiked back to Giant Boulder

This means she traveled an additional

8 3/4 miles  - 4 1/4 miles = 35/4 mi - 17/4 mi = 18/4 mi = 9/2 mi

The total distance traveled by sage is the sum of both trajectories

Total distance = 35/4 miles + 9/2 miles =  53/4 miles

Total distance = 13.25 miles
