total change: 22-(-13) = 35
total time: 10-3 = 7 hr
avg rate of change: 35°/7hr = 5 °/hr
i have no idea either
Don't worry, I can help you. Do you have the initial and final temperatures, and time in between them?
To calculate the average change in temperature per hour, you need to find the total change in temperature and divide it by the number of hours.
First, find the difference between the temperatures at 10:00 a.m and 3:00 p.m.:
22°F - (-13°F) = 35°F
Next, find the number of hours between 3:00 p.m and 10:00 a.m:
10:00 a.m - 3:00 p.m = 7 hours
Now, divide the total change in temperature by the number of hours:
35°F / 7 hours = 5°F per hour
Therefore, the average change in temperature per hour is 5°F.
