To find out how much warmer the city's record high temperature (106°F) is than the record low temperature (−17°F), you can calculate the difference:

  1. Subtract the record low temperature from the record high temperature:

    \[ 106°F - (-17°F) = 106°F + 17°F \]

  2. Adding these together gives:

    \[ 106°F + 17°F = 123°F \]

So, the record high temperature is 123°F warmer than the record low temperature.

The correct response is:

123°F
