Let y be the temperature
Let m be the rate of temperature drop in degrees per hour
Let x be the number of hours elapsed since 8PM
The initial temperature (at x = 0) is 0
y = mx
Four hours from 8 PM, the temperature was -16.8 degrees
-16.8 = m(4)
m = -4.2 degrees per hour
At 9PM, one hour will have elapsed.
y = -4.2(1)
y = -4.2 degrees
1 4/5 would be the answer
Your answer is 126 inches. You take 10.5 times 12 because there is 12 inches in a foot.
Answer:
Quotient is the answer you get when you divide.
