For this problem lets have t be equal to the original temperature in the beginning of the day. The equation -9 + 21 = t represents this situation because it states that if we add the degrees that dropped to the current degrees it will give us our original degrees. Solve. -9 + 21 = t (Simply add -9 + 21) -9 + 21 = (+12) 12 = t So, the original degrees in the beginning of the day was 12°C.
In this problem, we are asked to determine the degree of the given expression 12X4 - 8X + 4X2 -3. To answer this, first, we need to arrange the mathematical expression in descending order with respect to its power such as the new arrangement will become 12x4 + 4x2 -8x -3. The degree is clearly visible and it is 4. Therefore, the answer to this problem is the letter "B" which is 4.
