Answer 2

To find the rise in average daily temperature from January to March, you need to find the difference between the two temperatures.

First, calculate the absolute value of the temperature in January:

| -8 | = 8

Then, subtract the absolute value of the temperature in January from the temperature in March:

43 - 8 = 35

So, the rise in average daily temperature from January to March is 35 degrees Fahrenheit.
