suppose,the temperature today is 7 degrees celsius.yesterday it was 13 degree celsius cooler. What was the temperature yesterday ?

Respuesta :

13 degrees cooler means "negative" or subtract.

7 - 13 = -6

Answer: the temperature is 6 degrees below zero.

The yesterday's temperature is [tex]6^{\circ}[/tex] below the zero degree Celsius or (-6) degree Celsius.

Further explanation:

Given:

Today’s temperature is [tex]7^{\circ}[/tex] Celsius.

Yesterday’s temperature is cooler than [tex]13^{\circ}[/tex] from today.

Concept used:

Today's temperature is given in degree Celsius; therefore the yesterday’s temperature also must be in degree Celsius and it is given that the yesterday's temperature is less than [tex]13^{\circ}[/tex] Celsius.

Write the expression for the yesterday’s temperature.

[tex]\boxed{\text{Yesterday's temperature}=\text{today's temperature}-13^{\circ}}[/tex]

Calculation:

The yesterday's temperature can be obtained by the above formula.

Substitute [tex]7[/tex] for today's temperature in the above equation to obtain the yesterday’s temperature.

[tex]\fbox{\begin\\\ \begin{aligned}\text{Yesterday's temperature}&=7^{\circ}C-13^{\circ}C\end{aligned}\\\end{minispace}}[/tex]

Solve the above equation to obtain the yesterday’s temperature,

[tex]\boxed{\text{Yesterday's temperature}=(-6)^{\circ}}[/tex]

It can be also said that the Yesterday’s temperature is [tex]6^{\circ}[/tex] below the [tex]0^{\circ}C[/tex].

After solving the above equation it can be obtained that the yesterday’s temperature is [tex]6^{\circ}[/tex] below the zero degree Celsius or (-6) degree Celsius.
