The Following Ordered Pairs Represent Temperatures in Degrees Fahrenheit Taken 1:00pm1 : 00 \mathrm { pm }

Question 8

Multiple Choice

The following ordered pairs represent temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit taken each hour from 1:00pm1 : 00 \mathrm { pm } until 5:00 pm. Let TT be temperature, and let tt be time, where t=1t = 1 corresponds to 1:00pm,t=21 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , t = 2 corresponds to 2:00pm2 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , and so on. Plot the data. Visually find a linear model for the data and find its equation. From the visual linear model that you created, determine which of the models that follow appears to best approximate the data.
(1:00pm,67.4) ,(2:00pm,71.6) ,(3:00pm,73.4) ,(4:00pm,77.6) ,(5:00pm,79.4) \left( 1 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , 67.4 ^ { \circ } \right) , \left( 2 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , 71.6 ^ { \circ } \right) , \left( 3 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , 73.4 ^ { \circ } \right) , \left( 4 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , 77.6 ^ { \circ } \right) , \left( 5 : 00 \mathrm { pm } , 79.4 ^ { \circ } \right)


A) T=2t+60T = 2 t + 60
B) T=2t+70T = - 2 t + 70
C) T=4t+60T = - 4 t + 60
D) T=4t+70T = 4 t + 70
E) T=3t+65T = 3 t + 65
