Answer:
The Temperature on Thursday morning will be -13° Fahrenheit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Temperature on Wednesday evening = -5 Fahrenheit
Temperature decreased Throughout the night = 8 degrees
We need to find the Temperature on Thursday morning.
Now we know that;
The temperature decreased means the temperature went more below the current temperature.
So To calculate Temperature on Thursday morning we will Subtract the temperature which got decreased by the temperature noted on Wednesday evening.
framing in equation form we get;
Temperature on Thursday morning = 
Hence The Temperature on Thursday morning will be -13° Fahrenheit.
Looks like you did it backwards, hope this was helpful!!
Answer: Option #4: the 0.2 could be changed to 2.
Explanation:
The table is designed to make the concept of percentages more understandable. The table first allocates the total amount of 70 in terms of its "fifths," or 20% parts. Then it expresses these parts in the last row of the table, showing that 20% of 70 is 14 and all the five parts sum up to 70 again.
Now, Mikel is supposed to express 40% of the amount. So she writes (incorrectly): 0.2 * 14. This statement needs to be changed to 2 * 14 (two times 14 = 28), to correspond to 2 times 20%, or 40% of 70.
This is reflected in the last (fourth) option "The 0.2 in the expression could be changed to 2."
Option #3 is incorrect because changing 14 to 70, will result in an incorrect number (2.8).
Options 1 and 2 are similarly incorrect (as can be easily verified)
