The temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, in Times Square during a day in August can be predicted by the function
7(x) = sin(0.3x - 3) + 74, where x is the number of hours after midnight. According to this model, what is the
predicted temperature, to the nearest degree Fahrenheit at 5pm

Respuesta :

Using the given function, the predicted temperature at 5 pm is of 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

What is the function for the predicted temperature?

The predicted temperature in x hours after midnight is given by the following function:

T(x) = sin(0.3x - 3) + 74.

5 pm is 17 hours after midnight, hence x = 17 and the predicted temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is given by:

T(17) = sin(0.3(17) - 3) + 74 = 74.86.

Rounding to the nearest degree, the predicted temperature at 5 pm is of 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
