The temperature at 12 noon was 10°C above zero. If it decreases at the rate of 2°C
hour until midnight, at what time would the temperature be 8°C below zero? What wo 6
be the temperature at midnight?

Step-by-step explanation:
rom the question is given that,
Temperature at the beginning i.e., at 12 noon = 10oC
Rate of change of temperature = – 2oC per hour
Then,
Temperature at 1 PM = 10 + (-2) = 10 – 2 = 8oC
Temperature at 2 PM = 8 + (-2) = 8 – 2 = 6oC
Temperature at 3 PM = 6 + (-2) = 6 – 2 = 4oC
Temperature at 4 PM = 4 + (-2) = 4 – 2 = 2oC
Temperature at 5 PM = 2 + (-2) = 2 – 2 = 0oC
Temperature at 6 PM = 0 + (-2) = 0 – 2 = -2oC
Temperature at 7 PM = -2 + (-2) = -2 -2 = -4oC
Temperature at 8 PM = -4 + (-2) = -4 – 2 = -6oC
Temperature at 9 PM = -6 + (-2) = -6 – 2 = -8oC
∴At 9 PM the temperature will be 8oC below zero
Then,
The temperature at mid-night i.e., at 12 AM
Change in temperature in 12 hours = -2oC × 12 = – 24oC
So, at midnight temperature will be = 10 + (-24)
= – 14oC
So, at midnight temperature will be 14oC below 0.
