Question

At 5 a.m., the temperature at an airport was −9.4°F . Six hours later, the temperature was 2.8°F . Which expression represents the total temperature change over the six hours?

I need help with this now!

Answer 1

-9.4 + x6 = 2.8 this is an equation for the question

Answer 2

(-9.8 + x) = 2.8

Explanation:

The temperature at an airport at 5:00 am was -9.4° F.

Six hours later the temperature was 2.8° F.

Let temperature change in the 6 hours is = x° F

Then the temperature after six hours from -9.8° F will be = (-9.8 + x)° F

And the expression representing the change will be

(-9.8 + x) = 2.8
