Yes, because the afternoon rate is just the morning rate split in half. Instead of checking the temperature every hour and a half, the temperature was checked every 45 minutes. And, the temperature rate was also split in half when the time was split in half. So basically, if the 2 degrees every 45 minutes was multiplied by 2,(both the time and the temperature) or if the 4 degrees every 90 minutes was divided by 2, (once again, both the time and the temperature) then, they would both be either 2 degrees every 45 minutes, or they would both be 4 degrees every 90 minutes.
