The temperature is changing every day by negative 3 over 16 degrees Fahrenheit. What will be the change in the temperature after 4 days?
(1 point)
Group of answer choices
negative 64 over 3 degrees Fahrenheit
negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit
3 over 64 degrees Fahrenheit
3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit
The change in temperature per day is given as negative 3 over 16 degrees Fahrenheit. After 4 days, the change in temperature would be 4 times the daily change, or:
4 * (negative 3 over 16) = negative 12 over 16 = negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit.
Therefore, the change in temperature after 4 days is negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit. The correct answer is:
negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit.
To find the change in temperature after 4 days, we need to multiply the rate of change (-3/16 degrees Fahrenheit) by the number of days (4).
First, multiply the rate of change by 4:
(-3/16) * 4 = -12/16
Simplifying the fraction:
-12/16 = -3/4
So, the change in temperature after 4 days is -3/4 degrees Fahrenheit.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit
To find the change in temperature after 4 days, we need to multiply the rate of change by the number of days.
The rate of change is given as negative 3 over 16 degrees Fahrenheit. This means that the temperature decreases by 3 degrees for every 16 days.
To find the change in temperature after 4 days, we need to calculate: (negative 3 over 16) multiplied by 4.
When we multiply -3/16 by 4, we get:
(-3/16) * 4 = -12/16 = -3/4
Therefore, the change in temperature after 4 days is negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit.
Therefore, the correct answer is "negative 3 over 4 degrees Fahrenheit."
