ANSWER PLS!! HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer 1

For this case we have that the temperature drops steadily at a speed of ${\sf0.8\:\frac{degree}{hours}}$, that is, every hour drops 0.8 degrees. So, we can propose a rule of three:

1 hour ----------> 0.8 degrees

x ------------------> 4.4 degrees

Where the variable "x" represents the number of hours that must pass for the temperature to decrease by 4.4 degrees.

${\sf{x\:=\:\frac{4.4\:x\:1}{0.8}$

${\sf{x\:=\:5.5$

Thus, for the temperature to decrease by 4.4 degrees, 5.5 hours must pass.

Answer:

5.5 hours

Answer 2

Answer:

5.5 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hr --> -0.8 hrs

? --> -4.4°C

-4.4 / -0.8 = 5.5 hrs
