Question

In the coordinate plane below, the x-axis represents the number of days today, and the y Axis represents the temperature forecast in degrees Celsius the points (3, 7) and (3, -3) represent the high and low temperature forecasts of the same day what is the difference between the high and the low temperature forecastssolve for degrees Celsius

Answer 1

10°C

Explanation:

The first thing is to interpret the points given in the statement:

(3, 7) and (3, -3)

We graph them:

On day 3, the highest temperature is 7°C and the lowest temperature is -3°C.

We calculate the difference as follows:

`\begin{gathered} d=7-(-3) \\ d=7+3=10 \\ d=10\text{\degree{}C} \end{gathered}`

The difference is 10° Celsius.
