Which of the situations describes a temperature of -2 degrees? (1 point)

Question

• 2 degrees warmer than 1 degree
• 2 degrees colder than 1 degree
• 2 degrees warmer than 0 degrees
• 2 degrees colder than 0 degrees

Answer 1

To find the situation that describes a temperature of -2 degrees, let's analyze each option:

1. 2 degrees warmer than 1 degree:
   1 + 2 = 3 degrees (not -2)

2. 2 degrees colder than 1 degree:
   1 - 2 = -1 degree (not -2)

3. 2 degrees warmer than 0 degrees:
   0 + 2 = 2 degrees (not -2)

4. 2 degrees colder than 0 degrees:
   0 - 2 = -2 degrees (this is -2)

Thus, the situation that describes a temperature of -2 degrees is "2 degrees colder than 0 degrees."
