The change in temperature was 25 F - (-8F) = 33 F.

Answer:

Explanation:

The change in temperature is the difference between the two temperatures. In our case this is 25 F - (-8F) = 33 F. Notice that the subtracting the negative number changes the sign of the operation and turns it into an addition problem25 F+ 8 F = 33 F.
