Answer:
[tex]h(t)=x+0.46t[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
-Let t denote time and h(t) be the function that denotes the temperature after time t
-Also, let's take x°F to be the initial temperature of the vinegar.
Since, the temperature increases by 2.3°F every 5 minutes, we determine the rate of change per minute:
[tex]\bigtriangleup=\frac{2.3}{5}\\\\=0.46\textdegree F[/tex]
The situation can thus be expressed as:
[tex]h(t)=x+2.3\frac{t}{5}\\\\h(t)=x+0.46t[/tex]
