One day the teperature at 8am was 41*F, and by 1pm the temperature was 61*F
\n" ); document.write( "In 5 hours the change in temperature = 61-41 = 20
\n" ); document.write( "In 1 hour the change in temperature = 20/5 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore hourly rate of temperature change = 4*F \n" ); document.write( "
