In wermer cilmates,approximate temperature predictions can be made by counting the number of chirps a cricket makes during a minute.The temperature (in Fahrenheit) decreased by 40 is equivalent to one-forth of the number of cricket chirps in a minute.
1.Write an equation for this relationship.
2.Approximately how many chirps per minute should be recorded if the temperature is 90 F?
3.If a person recorded 48 cricket chirps in a minute,what would the temperature be?
