Question

2 The temperature in Chicago was - 10 degrees Fahrenheit. It then rose 5 degrees.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial Temperature = -10

Increment = 5

Required

Solving (a): Write an Equation

The equation is to add the initial temperature and the increment

i.e

Equation = Initial Temperature + Increment

Solving (b): Solve the equation

Substitute values for initial temperature and the increment

Result = -10 + 5

Result = -5

Solving (c):

It's a negative answer because the increment in temperature is not greater than the initial temperature
