Answer 1

Answer: Is 91 degrees Fahrenheit

The answer for The equation

y

=

6.88

x

−

199

models the number of visitors at a pool, y, and the air temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, x.

There are 426 visitors at the pool during one hot day.

What is the expected air temperature on that day? Round your answer to the nearest degree.

Explanation:

Answer 2

91°

Explanation:

We are given the equation:

y=6.88x - 199

The number of visitors at a pool = y = 426 visitors

The air temperature in degrees

Fahrenheit, x. = ??

Hence,

426= 6.88x - 199

6.88x = 426 + 199

6.88x = 625

x = 625 / 6.88

= 90.843023256°

The expected air temperature on that day, approximately to the nearest degree = 91°
