Question

Within 3 hours, the temperature in Oceanside falls by 8 degrees. If the temperature is now at 67 degrees Fahrenheit, what was the temperature 3 hours ago?

Answer 1

Answer:
`75^(\circ)F`

Explanation:

Given

If the temperature falls by
`8^(\circ)` in 3 hours

Present temperature is
`67^(\circ)F`

The difference in temperature i.e.

`\Rightarrow \text{Previous Temperature}-\text{Present temperature}=8\\\Rightarrow \text{Previous Temperature}=8+67=75^(\circ)F`

Temperature 3 hours ago is
`75^(\circ)F`
