Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the divisor and the dividend by the same power of 10 so that the divisor is a whole number. To check if your answer is reasonable, estimate the quotient by rounding the divisor and dividend to the nearest whole numbers.

"It is nonlinear because linear functions increase or decrease at the same rate."

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function decrease/increase at a constant rate.

If we need variables increase/decrease, then we choose a non-linear function.

According to Pauley, the function [temperature] decreases at a higher rate at first and then decreases at a lower rate eventually. So there is change in rate. So, we can describe this graph as non-linear. Because linear functions increase or decrease at the same rate, which here is non-applicable.

Thus, the 4th option is right, "It is nonlinear because linear functions increase or decrease at the same rate."
