Given:
The temperature of a compound rose is 21 degrees every 13 hours.
Required:
Find the rate, in degrees per hour, that the temperature of the compound rose.
Write the answer as a whole number, proper fraction, or mixed number in simplest form.
Explanation:
Given that the temperature of a compound rose is 21 degrees every 13 hours.
So the rate of the temperature
[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{21}{13} \\ =1\frac{8}{13} \\ =1.615384 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answer:
The rate of the temperature is
[tex]\frac{21}{13}=1\frac{8}{13}=1.615384[/tex]
