Question
Draw the temperature-time graph in each of the following cases:
| Time (in hours): | 8:00 | 10:00 | 12:00 | 14:00 | 16:00 | 18:00 | 20:00 |
| Temperature (°F) in: | 100 | 101 | 104 | 103 | 99 | 98 | 100 |

Solution
For point (ii):
On x-axis: 2 cm = 2 hours
On y-axis: 1 cm = 1οF
Let us assume that on the x-axis, the coordinate of origin is 6:00.
On y-axis, the coordinate of origin is 94οF .
So, the coordinates of O are (6:00, 94).
Now, let us plot (7:00, 100), (9:00, 101), (11:00, 104),..(21:00, 98) for point (i) and (8:00, 100), (10:00, 101), (12:00, 104),...,(20:00, 100) for point (ii). These points are joined to get the graphs representing the given information as shown in the figures below.

As part of his science project, Prithvi was supposed to record the temperature every hour one Saturday from 6 am to midnight. At noon, he was taking lunch and forgot to record the temperature. At 8:00 pm, his favourite show came on and so forgot again. He recorded the data so collected on a graph sheet as shown below.
- Why does it make sense to connect the points in this situation?
- Describe the overall trend, or pattern, in the way the temperature changes over the time period shown on the graph.
- Estimate the temperature at noon and 8 pm.
