It was 13°C yesterday, but the temperature changed by -18.6° overnight. What is the temperature now?
-492.89 - (-871.78)
Determine the distance between -18.26 and -2.45 on a number line.
Subtract 24 - (-15)

Answer 1

Let's solve each problem step by step, and then we can match the answers to their corresponding problems.

1. Temperature Problem:

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

2. Distance Problem:

   • To find the distance between -18.26 and -2.45 on a number line, we calculate the absolute difference:
   • Distance = |-18.26 - (-2.45)| = |-18.26 + 2.45| = |-15.81| = 15.81

3. Subtraction Problem:

   • For the subtraction 24 - (-15):
   • 24 - (-15) = 24 + 15 = 39

Now, we can match the answers to their corresponding problems:

• Current temperature (from the first problem): -5.6
• Distance between -18.26 and -2.45 (from the second problem): 15.81
• Result of 24 - (-15) (from the third problem): 39

While the response options (such as -492.89 and -(-871.78)) seem to be arbitrarily presented, we weren't specifically required to compute those based on the problems you've outlined. However, if you are looking for the actual computed answers to fill into a specific format, here are the answers related to the problems:

• Current temperature: -5.6
• Distance on the number line: 15.81
• Result of the subtraction: 39
