the temperature t in fish haven Idaho starts at 20 degrees Fahrenheit at midnight when h=0. The temperature. drops 2 degrees every hour. what equation represents the temperature in T at hours H

hint: the rate of change or slope -2 degrees every o=hour. because the temperature is falling.

As the hint stated, the slope is -2 degrees.


So, the easiest way to make a equation is to use slope intercept.  

Y=mx+b

M is the slope, and B is the Y-intercept.


so.

Y = (-2)x+20

Y = -2x+20

Answer:

[tex]T=-2h+20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the temperature t in fish  starts at 20 degrees Fahrenheit at midnight when h=0.

So when h=0 the T=20 degree (0,20)

The equation of temperature is

[tex]T=m(H)+b[/tex]

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y intercept is the initial degree , so b=20

m is the rate of change that is slope =-2

m=-2, b=20 , [tex]T=m(H)+b[/tex]

The equation becomes

[tex]T=-2h+20[/tex]
