Question

You count 100 chirps in 1 minute. What is the temperature?

Answer 1

T = 50 + 100 - 40/4

T = 50 + 60/4

T = 50 + 15

T = 65

96 = 50 + x - 40/4

Subtract 50 from both sides:

46 = x - 40/4

Multiply by 4:

184 = x - 40

Add 40:

224 = x

Answer 2

Well, birds don't tend to like certain temperatures, and there seemed to be a lot of chirping, so I assume the temperature is the temperature a bird would like.

Now my turn.
