Answer:
28 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let the time period at which the temperature be equal in both Brownsville and Mesquite Texas be 'x'.
Given,
In Brownsville Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 1.5° each hour and In Mesquite Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 2° each hour.
Now, according to the question,
after 'x' hours,
⇒ 80° - 1.5°(x) = 94° - 2°(x)
⇒ 0.5°(x) = 14°
⇒ x = 28
Hence, Till 28 more hours the temperature in Mesquite Texas be greater than that in Brownsville.
