The temperature of the compound will follow this function: 1/8x^2+15 ( I could be wrong).

But how did I come up with this function ??
The standard of a quadratic equation is given...the x is given...the f(x) is given. Now plug these in correspondence to find the constants. The rest is algebra. If you are not getting this answer, let me see your work
