Question

An equation is written to represent the relationship between the temperature in Alaska during a snow storm, y, as it relates to the time in hours, x, since the storm started. A graph of the equation is created. Which quadrants of a coordinate grid should be used to display this data?

Answer 1

Setting up time on the x axis and temperature on the y. We know that time cant be negative therefore we don't need quadrant 2 and 3. So this leaves quadrant 1 and 4 because temperature can be both positive and negative.
