At 6:00 A.M. the temperature was 33°F. By noon the temperature had increased by 10°F and by 3:00 P.M. it had increased another 12°F. If at 10:00 P.M. the temperature had decreased by 15°F, how much does the temperature need to rise or fall to return to the original temperature of 33°F?

Respuesta :

The amount of temperature needed to fall to return to the original temperature of 33°F is 7°F.

Temperature

  • A physical quantity that tells about the degree of hotness or coldness is called temperature.
  • Temperature is measured on two units which are °C (degree Celcius) and °F (degree Fahrenheit).

The temperature at different parts of a day

At 6:00 A.M. the temperature was 33°F.

The temperature by noon had increased 10°F.

And by 3:00 P.M. it had increased 12°F.

So, the temperature at 3:00 P.M. is,

= 33°F + 10°F + 12°F

= 55°F

Also, the temperature decreased by 15°F at 10:00 P.M.

So, the final temperature is,

= 55°F - 15°F

= 40°F

The temperature needed to fall to return to the original temperature of 33°F is,

= 40°F - 33°F

= 7°F.

Hence, a temperature of 7°F is needed to fall for it to return to its original temperature of 33°F.
