B.Budapest

C.Prague

D.Tehran

F.London

Answer 1

Answer:

Option A) Barrow  

Option E) Death Valley.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

                       City:  Barrow  Budapest  Prague  Tehran  Deathvalley  London

Highest Temperature:     73         103           98         109            134              91

Lowest Temperature:     -42        -10            -16           -5              -15              -6

The temperature are given in Fahrenheit.

We have to find the cities with difference between their highest and lowest temperatures that is greater than or equal to 115°F.

Absolute Difference =

$\text{Highest Temperature} - \text{Lowest Temperature}$

Barrow:

$73-(-42) = 115^\circ F$

Budapest:

$103-(-10) = 113^\circ F$

Prague:

$98-(-16) = 114^\circ F$  

Tehran:

$109-(-5) = 114^\circ F$  

Deathvalley:

$134-(-15) = 149^\circ F$  

London:

$91-(-6) = 97^\circ F$

Thus, the cities with absolute difference greater than or equal to  115°F are Option A) Barrow and Option E) Death Valley.
