Jorge was tracking the decreasing temperature in the morning. At 7 a.m., it was 65 degrees Fahrenheit. At 9 a.m., it was 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If Jorge made the function f(x) = −5x + 100, what would the −5 represent?

so at 7 am it was 65 and 9 am it was 55 which means each hour it was dropping 5 degrees so probably -5 degrees each hour
