Assuming that <em>a + 2 = y</em>, the property that was applied to arrived at <em>(a + 2)/3 = y/3</em> is the: division property of equality.
<em><u>Recall:</u></em>
What is done to both sides of an equation will determine what property of equality was applied to the equation.
- Thus, given the equation:
a + 2 = y
- The following was obtained:
(a + 2)/3 = y/3
Observing the equation stated above, we will see that both sides of the equation was divided by three. This makes both sides equal.
Therefore, assuming that <em>a + 2 = y</em>, the property that was applied to arrived at <em>(a + 2)/3 = y/3</em> is the: division property of equality.

Use Law of Cooling:

T0 = initial temperature, TA = ambient or final temperature
First solve for k using given info, T(3) = 42

Substituting k back into cooling equation gives:

At some time "t", it is brought back inside at temperature "x". 
We know that temperature goes back up to 71 at 2:10 so the time it is inside is 10-t, where t is time that it had been outside.
The new cooling equation for when its back inside is:

Solve for x:

Sub back into original cooling equation, x = T(t)

Solve for t:

This means the exact time it was brought indoors was about 2.5 seconds before 2:05 PM
