If it is 5º outside and the temperature will drop 17º in the next six hours, how cold will it get?
- A 12
- B -12
- C 22
- D -17
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The initial temperature is 5 degrees. Since the temperature is dropping, we subtract the drop of 17 degrees from the initial temperature. This can be represented mathematically as 5 - 17 = -12. Therefore, the final temperature will be -12 degrees.
