Question

The temperature is 8 drops 6 per hour what is the temperature at the end of three hours

Answer 1

26 degrees.

Explanation:

The temperature will increase by 6 degrees per hour for three hours, so the final temperature after three hours will be:

`\sf:\implies{8 + 6 * 3 = 8 + 18 = 26 }`

Therefore, the temperature at the end of three hours is 26 degrees.

Answer 2

Answer: -10 degrees

Explanation:

If it drops 6 degrees per hour, then we can use multiplication to see how much it will have dropped after 3 hours:

6 degrees * 3 hours = 18 degrees

If the temperature is 8 degrees, and it drops 18 degrees, we will subtract:

8 degrees - 18 degrees = -10 degrees
