Answer 1

Answer:

The expression to show the average daily change in temperature can be given by :

⇒ $\frac{2.64-0.22-0.35+0.63}{4}$°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Changes in the temperature of city as reported by newspaper :

Day 1: 2.64° C

Day 2: $-\frac{2}{9}$°C

Day 3: -0.35°C

Day 4: $\frac{5}{8}$°C

The average daily change in temperature can be calculated as

⇒ $\frac{2.64-\frac{2}{9}-0.35+\frac{5}{8}}{4}$°C

The fractions can be written in decimals

⇒ $\frac{2.64-0.22-0.35+0.63}{4}$°C

⇒ $\frac{2.7}{4}$°C

⇒ $0.675\°C\approx 0.68$°C [Average daily change in temperature.]
