I came over to help you out with your math homework. I figured you could use it on such a hot day…

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker connects an offer of maths help with the weather, although a hot day hardly explains a need for homework assistance. Read as a pretext for visiting, that awkward connection supplies the humour. The unfinished thought leaves room to suspect another motive behind the offer.
