Question

Scientists determined that Antárticas average winter temperature was -34.44 degrees Celsius. The difference between this temperature and antárticas highest recorded temperature was 49.44 degrees.What was Antárticas highest recorded temperature?

A)-83.88
B)-15
C)15
D)83.88

Answer 1

15 degrees.

Explanation:

First, count from -34.44 degrees to 0 degrees which is (0 - 34.44)=34.44 counts

Next, you determine how many more counts you need to reach the 49.44 degrees ; that would be 49.44 - 34.44 = 15

Therefore, the Antarticas highest recorded temperature was 15 degrees.
