The temperature at 5pm is 20F. The temperature at 10pm is -5F. How many degrees did it fall?please show work
at first its 20F but now its-5F. So u would get an answer of 25 degrees.
20F-(-5F)= 25F
Well, let's see. From 5pm to 10pm, we have a total of 5 hours. And in those 5 hours, the temperature dropped from 20°F to -5°F.
Now, to find out how many degrees it fell, we subtract the final temperature from the initial temperature. So, -5°F - 20°F equals... hmm, let me think.
Oh, I know! It's -25°F! So, it fell a whopping 25 degrees! But hey, look on the bright side, at least it didn't fall on anyone's foot! That would have been quite chilly!
To find how many degrees the temperature fell from 5 pm to 10 pm, we need to subtract the temperature at 10 pm from the temperature at 5 pm.
Temperature at 5 pm = 20F
Temperature at 10 pm = -5F
To find the difference, we subtract -5F from 20F:
20F - (-5F) = 20F + 5F = 25F
Therefore, the temperature fell by 25 degrees Fahrenheit.
To find out how many degrees the temperature fell between 5pm and 10pm, you need to subtract the temperature at 10pm from the temperature at 5pm.
Given that the temperature at 5pm is 20F and the temperature at 10pm is -5F, we can perform the following calculation:
20F - (-5F)
To subtract a negative number, you can change it to addition:
20F + 5F
Now, you can simply combine the terms:
20F + 5F = 25F
Therefore, the temperature fell 25 degrees Fahrenheit between 5pm and 10pm.
