    -7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First determine the number of hours that have past from 10PM to 1 AM

    10PM to 11 PM is 1 Hour

    11PM to 12 AM is 1 Hour

    12AM to 1 AM is 1 hour

    for a total of 3 hours

    Next multiply the average number of degrees the temperature is rising by the number of hours that passed

    3 x 3 = 9 which is the total number of degrees the temperature has risen by.

    Now add 9 to - 16

    -16 + 9 = - 7
