The temperature at 11AM is 5 degree fahrenheit warmer that that at 8 AM, so temperature at 11 AM is,


\begin{gathered} T=43^(\circ)F+5^(\circ)F \\ =48^(\circ)F \end{gathered}

At 8 PM, the temperature was 12 degree fahrenheit colder than that at 11 AM. So temperature at 8 PM is,


\begin{gathered} T^(\prime)=48^(\circ)F-12^(\circ)F \\ =36^(\circ)F \end{gathered}
