The highest is 7 degrees and lowest is -8 so subtract and you get a difference of 15 degrees
Answer:
The number is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number
Add 16 to the number
x+16
Is equal to 40
x+16 = 40
Subtract 16 from each side
x+16-16 = 40-16
x = 24
Percent decrease = (change in value) / (original value)
change in value = 9965-10100 =-135
We will just use 135 because the negative just that the value decreased
original value = 10100
So 135 / 10100 = .0134
This is a decrease of 1.34%
