Step-by-step explanation:
Ricardo is not correct because the temperature is actually getting colder (idk if I need to explain it more). The difference is -12 F

Answer: t = 7</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
If we replace every copy of x with t, then we go from this
F(x) = 3x+5
to this
F(t) = 3t + 5
All we've done really is change the letter. We still are dealing with a variable. We're told that F(t) is equal to 26, which would allow us to replace the "F(t)" with "26" in the second equation above.
So we now have the equation 26 = 3t+5 which is the same as 3t+5 = 26
Let's solve for t
3t+5 = 26
3t = 26-5 .... subtract 5 from both sides
3t = 21
t = 21/3 .... divide both sides by 3
t = 7 is the answer
Now note that...
F(t) = 3t + 5
F(7) = 3*7 + 5 .... replace t with 7
F(7) = 21 + 5
F(7) = 26
This means we got F(t) = 26 when t = 7
It's the same as saying x = 7 leads to F(x) = 26.
This helps confirm we have the correct answer.
Answer is 13a + 2b multiply everything in the parenthesis by 2 so 2 x b is 2b and 2 x 5a is 10a so 3a + 10a is 13a + 2b
