The variable t represents the temperature at 3 p.m. Which equation would best model this word problem? The temperature at the summit of Mt Mitchell dropped 23°F between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. If the temperature at 9 p.m. was –10°F, what was the temperature at 3 p.m.? A.t – 23 = –10 B.10 – 23 = t C.10 + 23 = t D.23 – t = –10 Please Explain the answer
If at 3 pm was t and dropped 23 degree, and then was -10 it for sure is answer A We can see it because first was t, then dropped 23 (subtract 27) and when it dropped we get -10 so t-23=-10
