At 8: 00, the temperature was 6 degrees Celsius (°C). Three hours later, the
temperature was -13°C.
By how many degrees Celsius did the temperature change?
Is the answer 19°C
Yes, 19 degrees.
thanks
You're welcome.
To find the change in temperature, we need to calculate the difference between the two temperatures: 6°C and -13°C.
To do this, we subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature. In this case, -13°C minus 6°C. The negative sign in front of the -13 indicates a temperature below zero.
-13°C - 6°C = -19°C
Therefore, the change in temperature is -19°C. The negative sign indicates that the temperature decreased by 19 degrees Celsius.
