The temperature at midnight was -8°C. The temperature at 5 am was -3°C. (a) Work out the difference between the two temperatures. (b) The temperature at midday was 9°C higher than the temperature at 5 am.. Work out the temperature at midday.​

Respuesta :

a) The difference between the temperatures is 5°c.

b) We will see that at midday, the temperature is 12°C.

How to find the differences between the temperatures?

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.
