Question

A furnace operates at 2,300°F. Before it

can be used to extract metal from an ore,
the temperature must be raised to
3,600°F. This takes place at a rate of
250°F per quarter hour. Which equation
gives the furnace temperature T after q
quarter hours?
A T= 2509 + 2300
B T = 250q + 3600
C T = 2300q + 250
DT= 3600q + 250

Answer 1

Multiply the rate per quarter hour by quarter hours: 250g. This then gets added to the starting temperature of 2300

The answer would be : A. T = 250g + 2300
