Question

scientists determined that antarctica's average winter tempeture was -34.44c .the difference between this tempeture and antarctica's highest recored temperature was 49.44 degrees .what was antarctica's highest recored tempeture?

Answer 1

Difference between average temperature and highest recorded = 49.44

Highest - Average = 49.44    Let it be H - A = 49.44

H - (-34.44) = 49.44

H + 34.44 = 49.44

H = 49.44 - 34.44 = 15

Highest recorded = 15°C.
