Given:
The temperature on the moon can vary from -172 to -126 degrees Celsius.
To find:
The difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures.
Solution:
It is given that the temperature on the moon can vary from -172 to -126 degrees Celsius.
Since
, therefore the minimum temperature is -172 and the maximum temperature is -126.
The difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures is:
Difference = Maximum temperature - Minimum temperature
Therefore, the difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures is 46 degrees Celsius.
