In January 2008, the temperature in parts of Minnesota fell from 41∘41∘F to −13∘-13∘F over a 24-hour period. What was the average temperature change per hour?

Question

 i always get a diffrent number than the ones givven

Answer 1

Hi Deidra,

 

The average temperature change per hour is equal to the difference in temperature divided by time.

 

delta T = 41 - (-13) F

delta t = 24 hours

 

= 54/24

= 9/4

= 2.25 F/hr
