Solve the following problem:

Question

It was 13°
C yesterday, but the temperature changed by −18.6°
overnight. What is the temperature now?(1 point)
°
C

Answer 1

To find the current temperature, you can subtract the change in temperature from the temperature yesterday.

Yesterday's temperature: 13°C
Change in temperature: -18.6°

Current temperature = Yesterday's temperature + Change in temperature
Current temperature = 13°C + (-18.6°)
Current temperature = 13°C - 18.6°
Current temperature = -5.6°C

So, the temperature now is -5.6°C.
