Question

The following graph shows the temperature of a patient in a hospital, recorded every hour. What was the temperature at $1.30\mathrm{p}.\mathrm{m}.$? How did you arrive at your answer?

Answer 1

The horizontal axis represents time and the vertical represents temperature in $°\mathrm{C}$. We can find the value of ‘Temperature’ on the vertical axis according to the given value of ‘Time’ on the horizontal axis value or vice versa.

Hence, the temperature at $1.30\mathrm{p}.\mathrm{m}.$ is $36.5^{\mathrm{o}}\mathrm{C}$.
