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. If this continues, what will the temperature be in 2 hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

In 2 hours, the temperature will be -6 degree C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The current temperature of the weather station is 0 degree celsius.

It is also given that, the temperature is falling 3 degree celsius per hour.

After one hour, the temperature will reduce by 3 degree, that is the temperature will be (0 - 3) = -3 degree celsius.

After another one hour, that is 2 hours, the temperature will be (-3 - 3) = -6 degree celsius.

Answer 2

In 2 hours, the temperature will be -6 degrees C.
