Question

. The temperature on Monday was −5∘C . By Tuesday the temperature rose to −2∘C. Find the change in temperature.

Answer 1

Answer:
`3^(\circ)C`

Explanation:

Given

The temperature on Monday was
`-5^(\circ)C`

By Tuesday, it becomes
`-2^(\circ)C`

Change in temperature is the difference between the two temperatures.

`\Rightarrow \Delta T=-2-(-5)\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=-2+5\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=3^(\circ)C`

Therefore, the change in temperature is
`3^(\circ)C`.
