The average = Total temperature / Number of days

Since the number of days = 5

Since the temperature dropped a total of 50 degrees

So the average is


\begin{gathered} \text{ave}\mathrm{}=(50)/(5) \\ \text{ave}\mathrm{}=\text{ 10 degrees/day} \end{gathered}

The answer is: the average change in temperature is 10 degrees per day
