Answer 1

Answer:

The final outside temperature = -6°

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven that :

the outside temperature = -13°

The temperature drops by 9°

But then increases by 16°.

The final temperature can be expressed as:

the outside temperature - temperature drop

= -( 13° - 9°)

= - 22°

it is said that the temperature later increase by 16°

∴  - 22° + 16°

= -6°

The final outside temperature = -6°
