Answer: 21 degrees

Explanation:

In the evening, the temperature is 28 degrees and by midnight it has dropped 31 degrees lower, the temperature by midnight will be:

= 28° - 31°

= -3°

Between midnight and 4 am it goes down 6 more degrees. The temperature by 4am will be:

= -3° - 6°

= -9°

Then, by 9 am, the temperature goes up 30 degrees, the temperature at 9 am will then be:

= -9° + 30°

= 21°
