The equation above is used to model the relationship between the number of cups, n, of hot chocolate sold per day in a coffee shop and the average daily temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit. According to the model, what is the meaning of the 3 in the equation?

• For every increase of 3°F, one more cup of hot chocolate will be sold.

• For every decrease of 3°F, one more cup of hot chocolate will be sold.

• For every increase of 1°F, three more cups of hot chocolate will be sold.

• For every decrease of 1°F, three more cups of hot chocolate will be sold.
