Question

Write and solve an algebraic equation to find the answer.

From midnight to 6:00 am, the temperature rose 8°C. At 6:00 am, the temperature was −20°C. What was the temperature at midnight?

Answer 1

Let x represent the temperature at midnight.

We can write an equation to represent the situation:

x + 8 = -20

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation:

x + 8 - 8 = -20 - 8

x = -28

Therefore, the temperature at midnight was -28°C.
