Answer:
The actual temperature is: -6.92
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]y = -26 + 1.3x[/tex]
Required
Find x when [tex]y = -35[/tex]
Substitute [tex]y = -35[/tex] in [tex]y = -26 + 1.3x[/tex]
[tex]-35 = -26 + 1.3x[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]1.3x = 26 - 35[/tex]
[tex]1.3x = -9[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]x =-9/1.3[/tex]
[tex]x =-6.92[/tex]
