Question

A weather station on the top of a mountain reports that the temperature is currently 0°C and has been falling at a constant rate of 3°C per hour. Find each temperature. Show your work.

If it continues to fall at this rate, what will the temperature be:


in 2 hours? _______ in 5 hours? _______ in half an hour? _______

Answer 1

Answer:

in 2hrs =  -6°C

in 5hrs = -15°C

in half an hr = -1.5°C

Step-by-step explanation:

in an hr, the temperature falls by 3°C = 0 -3 = -3°C

in 2hrs = 2*-3°C = -6°C

in 5hrs = 5*-3°C = -15°C

in half an hr = 0.5 * -3°C = -1.5°C

Answer 2

The required continues to fall at this rate of the temperature in 2 hours -6°C ,5hours in -15°C and in half an hour -1.5°C.

Given that,

A weather station on the top of a mountain reports that the temperature is currently 0°C and has been falling at a constant rate of 3°C per hour.

We have to find,

If it continues to fall at this rate, what will the temperature be in 2 hours 5 hours and in half an hour.

According to the question,

A weather station on the top of a mountain reports that the temperature is currently 0°C and has been falling at a constant rate of 3°C per hour.

In an hour the temperature falls by 3°C = 0 - 3 = -3°C

The temperature fall in 2hrs = (2)(-3°C) = -6°C

The temperature fall in 5hrs = (5)(-3°C) = -15°C

The temperature fall in half an hour = (0.5)(-3°C) = -1.5°C

Hence, The required continues to fall at this rate of the temperature in 2 hours -6°C ,5hours in -15°C and in half an hour -1.5°C.
