Question

At noon the temperature was 6°c over the next five hours the temperature dropped another 8 degrees Then every hour until 9:00 temperature rose 4 degrees.what was the temperature at 9:00

Answer 1

Answer:

The temperature at 9:00 is 14° C.

Step-by-step explanation:

At noon, the temperature was 6° C.

By 5:00, the temperature had dropped to -2° C.

Every hour until 9:00, the temperature rose 4°, so 4•4 is 16.

16 + -2 is 14.

So, the temperature at 9:00 is 14° C.

Answer 2

Answer:

The temperature at 9:00 P.M is $14^\circ C$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Temperature at 12:00 = $6^\circ C$

Over the next five hours the temperature dropped another 8 degrees.

Thus, temperature at 5:00 P.M =

$6 - 8 = -2^\circ C$

Then every hour until 9:00 temperature rose 4 degrees.

Temperature at 6:00 P.M =

$-2 + 4= 2^\circ C$

Temperature at 7:00 P.M =

$2+4= 6^\circ C$

Temperature at 8:00 P.M =

$6+4= 10^\circ C$

Temperature at 9:00 P.M =

$10+4= 14^\circ C$

Thus, the temperature at 9:00 P.M is $14^\circ C$
