Question

(a) by noon, the temperature in Boston had risen by 12 F. What was the temperature there at noon (b) how much higher was the 6a.m temperature in Winnipeg than in Nome

Answer 1

Part a)

Since the temperature increased 12°F, we do the following operation:

$-4+12=8$

Therefore, the temperature in Boston at noon is 8°F.

Part b)

To solve this part, we subtract the temperature of Nome from the temperature of Winnipeg:

$-14-(-32)=-14+32=18$

Therefore, at 6 am, the temperature in Winnipeg was 18°F higher than in Nome.
