The temperature on Wednesday was 8° more than a third of Tuesday’s temperature. If T represents Tuesday’s temperature, write an expression for Wednesday’s temperature, W.
T= Tuesdays Temp
W = Wednesdays Temp
Wednesday was 8 deg more (+ 8 deg) than a third of Tuesday's temp (\(\frac{1}{3}\)
W=\(\frac{1}{3} T + 8\)
Answer: \(W=\dfrac{1}{3}T+8\)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given statement : The temperature on Wednesday was 8° more than a third of Tuesday’s temperature.
Let T represents Tuesday’s temperature, and W represents Wednesday’s temperature.
Then , the algebraic expression for Wednesday’s temperature. is given by :-
\(W=\dfrac{1}{3}T+8\) [Since one-third=1/3]
