The temperature dropped by 12° in 5 hours. The temperature dropped the same amount every hour. Complete the equation that represents the amount of change, x , of temperature every hour and solve this equation.(1 point)
5x=
The temperature decreased by
° every hour.
To represent the amount of change "x" of temperature every hour, we can set up the equation 5x = -12. Now, let's solve this equation:
Subtract 12 from both sides:
5x - 12 = -12
Simplify:
5x = 0
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 0
Therefore, the temperature decreased by 0 degrees every hour.
