From 9 P.M. to 5 A.M. the temperature dropped 20°, making the rate over 8 hours, -2.5° Per Hour. By 5 A.M., the temperature is -5° since we had to do 15 - 20. From 5 AM to 5 P.M. is 12 hours so -2.5 x 12 = -30 making 30 how much the temperature dropped between 5 A.M. to 5 P.M. Finally, our last equation is -5 - 30 making -35 our answer.

Step-by-step explanation:


To solve a system of equations, we can add the two equations and solve for one of the remaining variables -- let's try to eliminate the
variable when we add the two equations together.
Right now, there's a
term in the first equation, and a
term in the second equation, so if we add those together, we'll be able to eliminate the
variable altogether and solve for
.
However, when we also have a
term in the first equation and
term in the second equation, so adding these together will also eliminate the
term, leaving a
on the left-hand side of the equation.
If we add the two numbers on the right side of the equation, we get
, which does not equal
, meaning there are no solutions to this system of equations.
The first one is 4, and the second one is 3.7
