Trоpicаl fish in аn аquarium dо best when the water is between 75 degrees and 80 degrees F. The water heater in an aquarium is brоken, and the temperature in the aquarium is decreasing by approximately 0.35 degrees F every hour. If the water becomes too cold, the fish may become vulnerable to disease and die. The water was 78 degrees F when the heater broke. Write an equation to represent the temperature of the water for any given time t after the heater broke. Show all work. [a] If the heater broke at 6:00 pm, what is the predicted temperature for 9:30 pm? Show all work, include units, and round to the nearest tenth. [b] Use your equation from part (a) to determine how long it will take for the temperature to reach 0 degrees F. Show all work, include units, and round to the nearest tenth. [c] Is is possible for the temperature of the water to reach 0 degrees F? Explain your answer in 1-2 sentences. [d]
