The graph represents a system of linear equations comparing the outside and inside temperatures y, in degrees Fahrenheit, recorded at a school one day x hours after 8:00 a.m.

A coordinate grid showing Daily Temperature with Hours after 8:00 a m on the horizontal, x axis and Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit on the vertical, y, axis. One line labeled Inside passes through (0, 70) and (8, 70). The second line passes through (0, 58) and passes through (8, 70).
After how many hours were the inside and outside temperatures equal?

6 hours
7 hours
8 hours
10 hours

Sagot :

Using linear functions, it is found that the temperatures would be equal after 8 hours.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Two functions are equal when they intersect. In this problem, both lines pass through point (8,70), that is, they have the same temperature(of 70 degrees) after 8 hours.
