The function \( T = |20 - 4h| \) estimates the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit \( h \) hours after noon over a particular 24-hour period.
Given that \( h \) represents hours after noon, the constraints on the variable \( h \) are:
-
The value of \( h \) is restricted to \([0, 24]\), which represents the time from noon (0 hours after noon) to the end of the following noon (24 hours).
-
The constraint on the variable \( h \) is written as \( 0 \leq h \leq 24 \).
To summarize:
- The value of \( h \) is restricted to [0, 24].
- The constraint on the variable \( h \) is written as \( 0 \leq h \leq 24 \).
