Answer:
<u>t = t₀ - 3n</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t be the temperature and t₀ be the initial temperature of the day
Let n be the number of hours after the initial temperature ( t₀) was registered
Let -3 be the constant of change of temperature ( In 4 hours it went down 12 degrees)
Now, let's write down the expression that shows the temperature change each hour, this way:
t = t₀ - 3n
After 2 hours
t = t₀ - 3 * 2 = t₀ - 6
After 5 hours
t = t₀ - 3 * 5 = t₀ - 15
After 3 hours and 30 minutes
t = t₀ - 3 * 3.5 = t₀ - 10.5
93% of 149
10% of 149 = 14,9
93% of 149 > 90% of 149
93% of 149 > 149 - 14,9 ≈ 149-15≈134
> 134
⇒ the answer is D
