Question 3

*Wind chill* is a measure of how cold people feel when exposed to wind outside. A good estimate for wind chill can be found using this calculation:

$$
W=T-0.7\cdot S
$$

Here $W$ represents the wind chill, $T$ represents air temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit $(^{\circ}F),$ and $S$ represents wind speed measured in miles per hour (mph).

Suppose the air temperature is $36^{\circ}F$ and the wind speed is $18$ mph. Which of the following is closest to the approximate wind chill?
  1. $18$
  2. $23$
  3. $28$
  4. $32$
  5. $35$
