Answer: It decreased by 24F not 10F because if it were 10F the starting temperature had to be -7F since the difference between this number and -17F is 10F but in this case it starts at 7F so we subtract 7-0=7 and 17-0=17 and add 17+7=24F.

Step-by-step explanation:

7-0=7

17-0=17

17+7=24F

The absulote value of -8 and 5
Blababa [14]

The absolute value of -8 is 8 and the absolute value of 5 is 5. Absolute value is basically the number's distance from 0 on a number line, basically how many numbers it is away from 0. For that reason, it's always positive, regardless of whether or not the number is positive or negative. Hope this helped!
