Answer: No, No, Yes, Yes, Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
At 2:15 the temperature is 7°
It decreases 3° every 15 minutes ⇒ -3
Here is a table:
time | temperature
2:15 | 7
2:30 | 7 - 3 = 4
2:45 | 7 - 3 - 3 = 1
3:00 | 7 - 3 - 3 - 3 = -2
3:15 | 7 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 = -5
3:30 | 7 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 = -8
Do you see a pattern? This can be written as:
7 + (-3) + (-3) + (-3) + (-3) + (-3) + (-3)
7 - (3)(5)
7 + 5(-3)
