Answer:
Given function:
y=9.5x+62.1
We have to find the number of minutes x, when y=138.1°F
Put value of y in function.
138.1=9.5x+62.1
Subtract 62.1 from both sides.
76=9.5x
Divide both sides by 9.5.
8=x
or
x=8 minutes
Answer: After 8 minutes the temperature of water will be 138.1°
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
T= 8n+76
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to find the average rate of change:
( 3, 100)
(9,148)
Subtract:
148-100= 48
9-3= 6
Then divide them:
48/6=8
This is your slope, now we must find our y- intercept by using the formula
y= mx+b:
y=mx+b
Plug in what you know:
y= 8x+b
To find your y-intercept use one of the 2 points above, either (3,100) or (9,148)
Plug in your x's and y's into your almost complete equation:
100= 8(3)+b
Then solve to get b:
You should get b=76
Hope this helps
