Final answer:

To determine the outside temperature, we add the temperature of dry ice (-109.3°F) to the difference (184.9°F), resulting in an outside temperature of 75.6°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to find the outside temperature given that the temperature of dry ice is -109.3°F and that this temperature is 184.9°F less than the outside temperature. To find the outside temperature, we can set up the following equation:

Outside Temperature = Dry Ice Temperature + Difference

Then plug in the given values:

Outside Temperature = (-109.3°F) + 184.9°F

Doing the calculation:

Outside Temperature = 75.6°F

So, the outside temperature is 75.6°F.
