The temperature at 12 was 10 degree above zero . If it decreases at the rate of 2 degrees per hour, what was the temperature at 2 afternoon?
To find the temperature at 2 in the afternoon, we need to determine the change in temperature from 12 to 2 and subtract that from the initial temperature at 12.
Given that the temperature at 12 was 10 degrees above zero, we can conclude that the initial temperature at 12 was 10 degrees.
Since the temperature decreases at a rate of 2 degrees per hour, we need to calculate the change in temperature over the course of 2 hours.
In 2 hours, the temperature will decrease by 2 degrees per hour, resulting in a total decrease of 2 x 2 = 4 degrees.
To find the temperature at 2 in the afternoon, we subtract the change in temperature from the initial temperature at 12:
Temperature at 2 = Initial temperature at 12 - Change in temperature
Temperature at 2 = 10 - 4 = 6 degrees
Therefore, the temperature at 2 in the afternoon is 6 degrees.

well, how many hours passed?
2 degree drop every hour, starting at 10
