Answer:

[tex]67\frac{7}{10}[/tex] or [tex]67.7[/tex]°

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's interpret the wording. It mentions that on the first day the temperature dropped [tex]10\frac{7}{10}[/tex]. Then on the second day the temperature increased by [tex]12\frac{6}{10}[/tex]. Then they tell us that if the beginning temperature was [tex]65\frac{8}{10}[/tex] what would the temperature be at the end of the of the second day. So since the temperature decreased the first day we should subtract [tex]10\frac{7}{10}[/tex] from [tex]65\frac{8}{10}[/tex]. That will give us [tex]55\frac{1}{10}[/tex]. Now for the second day the temperature increased so we will add [tex]12\frac{6}{10}[/tex] to [tex]55\frac{1}{10}[/tex] and that will give us [tex]67\frac{7}{10}[/tex] and if you want it in a decimal it will be [tex]67.7[/tex].
