Respuesta :

Answer:

Therefore,

The temperature at midnight after those 12 hours,

[tex]Temperature = -14\°[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

At noon the temperature was 10 degrees,

After every hour the temperature dropped 2 degrees for the next 12 hours,

Therefore,

For  one hour, Temperature dropped 2 degrees

For  12 hour, Temperature dropped = 2 × 12 = 24 degrees

Initial Temperature = 10°

So, Temperature after 12 hour at midnight,

[tex]Final\ Temperature = 10-24 = -14\°[/tex]

Therefore,

The temperature at midnight after those 12 hours,

[tex]Temperature = -14\°[/tex]
