Cricket chirp more frequently as temperature increases. You can estimate the Fahrenheit temperature by counting the number of times a particular type of cricket chirps in 15 seconds and adding 39.

a. What is the temperature if a cricket chirps two times each second.

2 x 15 = 30

30 + 39 = 69 so 69 degrees Fahrenheit

Hope it helps :)

2x15 = 30 chirps per 15 seconds
