a) The difference between the temperatures is 5°c.
b) We will see that at midday, the temperature is 12°C.
We know that at midnight the temperature was T = -8°C, and at 5am the temperature was T' = -3°C.
a) First we want to find the difference between the temperatures, we can compute that directly:
T' - T = -3°C - (-8°C) = 5°C
This means that the temperature increased 5°C in that time interval.
b) At midday, the temperature was 9°C higher than at 5am, this means that:
T'' - T' = 9°C
T'' - 3°C = 9°C
Now we can solve this for T''
T'' = 9°C + 3°C = 12°C
At midday, the temperature is 12°C.
