A pendulum clock runs faster by 5 seconds per day at \(20^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\) and goes slow by 10 second per day at \(35^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\). It shows the correct time at a temperature of:
1. \(27.5^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
2. \(25^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
3. \(30^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
4. \(33^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
