Question

The temperature in Montreal, Canada went from 0° Celsius to 11.7° Celsius in a six hour period. If the temperature increased at a constant rate, how many degrees did the temperature rise per hour?

Answer 1

`Rate=(\Delta temp)/(\Delta time)`

`Rate=(temp_(2)-temp_(1))/(time_(2)-time_(1))`

`Rate=(11.7\°-0\°)/(6hr-0hr)`

`Rate=(11.7\°)/(6hr)`

`Rate=1.95(\°)/(hr)`
