During a certain summer thunderstorm, the temperature drops and then rises again. The rate of change of the temperature during the hour and a half after the storm began is given by t(h) = 9.36h3 - 15.39h2 + 17.37h – 9.89 where output is measured in °F per hour and h is the number of hours since the storm began. (a) Calculate the average rate of change of temperature from 0 to 1.5 hours after the storm began. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) 1-0.5075 v °F per hour (b) If the temperature was 80°F at the time the storm began, what was the average temperature during the first 1.5 hours of the storm? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) x °F
