The temperature at 6pm of town was 37 degree c at mid night the temperature was 31 degree c if the rise in temperature per hour
To calculate the rise in temperature per hour, we can use the formula:
Rise in temperature per hour = (Temperature at midnight - Temperature at 6pm) / Number of hours
Given:
Temperature at 6 pm = 37°C
Temperature at midnight = 31°C
Number of hours = 12 (from 6 pm to midnight)
Rise in temperature per hour = (31°C - 37°C) / 12 hours
= (-6°C) / 12 hours
= -0.5°C per hour
So, the rise in temperature per hour is -0.5°C.
To find the rise in temperature per hour, we can use the formula:
Rise in temperature = (Final temperature - Initial temperature) / Time interval
In this case, the initial temperature is 37 degrees Celsius at 6 pm and the final temperature is 31 degrees Celsius at midnight. The time interval is 6 hours (from 6 pm to midnight).
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Rise in temperature = (31 - 37) / 6 = -6 / 6 = -1 degree Celsius per hour
Therefore, the rise in temperature per hour is -1 degree Celsius, indicating a decrease in temperature over time.
6 degrees in 6 hours.

(and it looks more like a decrease than an increase, to me)
