1. Calculate how many hours passed between her temperature checks. 8 p.m to 8 a.m. is 12 hours.
2. Calculate the total change in temperature. 36 - 54 is -18, so the temperature went down by 18 degrees.
3. We are looking for degrees per hour, so we put derees(18) over hours (12) to get 18/12.
4. Calculate by dividing. The answer is 1.5 degrees per hour.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
No it isn't, because:
![{1.08}^{ \frac{1}{5} } = { \frac{108}{100} }^{ \frac{1}{5} } = { \frac{27}{25} }^{ \frac{1}{5} } = \sqrt[5]{ \frac{27}{25} } = 1.01551](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%7B1.08%7D%5E%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B108%7D%7B100%7D%20%7D%5E%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B27%7D%7B25%7D%20%7D%5E%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%5Csqrt%5B5%5D%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B27%7D%7B25%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%201.01551)
12 times 35 times 28= 980..... im not sure
