42 - -22 = 42+22 = 64 degrees

11 - 3 = 8 hours
so degrees per hour = 64/8 = 8 deg/ hr

To calculate the average change in temperature per hour, you need to find the total change in temperature and divide it by the number of hours.

First, let's calculate the total change in temperature. The temperature changed from -22 degrees to 42 degrees, which is an increase of 42 - (-22) = 64 degrees.

Now, let's find the number of hours between 3:00 AM and 11:00 AM. There are 8 hours between these two times.

To find the average change in temperature per hour, divide the total change in temperature (64 degrees) by the number of hours (8 hours): 64 / 8 = 8 degrees per hour.

So, the average change in temperature per hour is 8 degrees.
