Answer 1

Explanation:

Start (*C) Change(*C) Final Temperature (*C)

a -20 30 degrees warmer 10

b -20 35 degrees warmer 15

c -20 15 degrees warmer -5

d -20 15 degrees colder -35

Number line diagrams:

a. Starting from -20C, a 30 degrees warmer temperature change takes the final temperature to 10C.

-40 -30 -20 -10 0 10

-------->

b. Starting from -20C, a 35 degrees warmer temperature change takes the final temperature to 15C.

-40 -30 -20 -10 0 10 20

----------->

c. Starting from -20C, a 15 degrees warmer temperature change takes the final temperature to -5C.

-40 -30 -20 -10 0 10

------->

d. Starting from -20C, a 15 degrees colder temperature change takes the final temperature to -35C.

-40 -30 -20 -10 0 10 20 30 40
