Solve the following problem:
It was −8°F this morning, but the temperature has gone up 11° over the course of the day. What is the temperature now?(1 point)
Responses
11°F
11 degrees F
3°F
3 degrees F
−3°F
negative 3 degrees F
19°F
To find the temperature now, we start with -8°F and add 11°F:
-8°F + 11°F = 3°F
Therefore, the temperature now is 3°F.
To solve this problem, we need to add the change in temperature to the initial temperature.
The initial temperature was -8°F, and the temperature has gone up 11°F.
To find the temperature now, we add the change in temperature (11°F) to the initial temperature (-8°F).
-8°F + 11°F = 3°F
Therefore, the temperature now is 3°F.
Answer: 3°F
