Question

The temperature was 88°F this morning. It dropped 2°F every hour,

Answer 1

Answer:

x=88-2h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the hour and x represent the current temperature. The numbers are in degrees fahrenheit.

The current temperature is the variable you're solving for, so it will be independent. 88 is the y-axis, as it was originally the temperature, so you will use that as your constant (since it doesn't change). You will be taking 2 degrees for every hour, so subtract 2 per hour(h) from the constant.
