Dear student,

Initial temperature i.e., at 2 pm= 22°C Change in temperature per hour = 3°C Temperature at 3:00 PM = 22ºC + (3ºC) =19ºCTemperature at 4:00 PM = 19ºC + (3ºC) =16ºCTemperature at 5:00 PM = 16ºC + (3ºC) =13ºCTemperature at 6:00 PM = 13ºC + (3ºC) =10ºCTemperature at 7:00 PM = 10ºC + (3ºC) =7ºCTemperature at 8:00 PM = 7ºC + (3ºC) =4ºCTemperature at 9:00 PM = 4ºC + (3ºC) =1ºCTemperature at 10:00 PM = 1ºC + (3ºC) =-2ºCTherefore, the temperature will be 2°C below zero at 10:00 PM.
