3. Noah's oven thermometer gives a reading that is 2% greater than the actual temperature.
b. If the thermometer reading is 76°F, what is the actual temperature?

74.48 (round down to 74)

Step-by-step explanation:

2% of 76 is 1.52, so the correct reading would be 74.48 (rounded to 74)

to find that 2% of 76 what 1.52, I did 76 x .02 which gave me 1.52. Then I subtracted 1.51 from 76, which gave me 74.48

Equations used:

76x.02=1.52

76-1.52=74.48

step-by-step explanation:

the x's and the y's both go up the same amount each time, therefore it will be a linear function because it will go in a straight line when drawn on a graph.

hope this !
