Solve the Problem $\mathrm { T } = 0.113 \mathrm { x }$

question 302

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-As the relative humidity increases, the temperature seems higher than it is. The formula $\mathrm { T } = 0.113 \mathrm { x }$ + $82.57$ approximates the apparent temperature for an actual temperature of $90 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }$ , where $\mathrm { x }$ is the relative humidity. What is the apparent temperature (to the nearest degree) for a relative humidity of $50 \%$ ?

• A) \(88 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }\)
• B) \(467 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }\)
• C) \(83 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }\)
• D) \(133 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }\)
