Answer:

2 °F

Explanation:

Overnight temperature = -7 °F

Total Noon temperature = 9 °F

What was the temperature in Chicago that afternoon?

Temperature in Chicago that afternoon = Total Noon temperature + Overnight temperature

= 9 °F + (-7 °F)

= 9 °F - 7 °F

= 2 °F

Temperature in Chicago that afternoon = 2 °F
