Answer:

[tex]T=T_{0} -3h[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]T_{0}[/tex] be the initial temperature and T be the current temperature.

Let h be the number of hours.

In 4 hours, the temperature has been going down 12 degrees.

In 1 hour, it has been going down 12/4 = 3 degrees.

In h hours, it has been going down 3h degrees.

So, the expressions that models this situation is:

[tex]T=T_{0} -3h[/tex]
