The temperature is dropping throughout the day as a cold front comes in in City a the temperature is changing by -5° Fahrenheit per hour and a city be the temperature is changing by negative 3° f if the temperature in both cities started at 70° Fahrenheit which city is warmer and what is the difference in their temperature after 5 hours
To find out which city is warmer after 5 hours, we need to calculate the final temperature for each city.
In City A, the temperature is changing by -5°F per hour. So, after 5 hours, the temperature will be:
70°F - (5°F/hour * 5 hours) = 70°F - 25°F = 45°F.
In City B, the temperature is changing by -3°F per hour. So, after 5 hours, the temperature will be:
70°F - (3°F/hour * 5 hours) = 70°F - 15°F = 55°F.
Comparing the final temperatures, we can see that City B has a warmer temperature of 55°F, while City A has a cooler temperature of 45°F.
To find the difference in temperature between the two cities, we subtract City A's temperature from City B's temperature:
55°F - 45°F = 10°F.
Therefore, the difference in temperature after 5 hours is 10°F, with City B being warmer.
