On Tuesday, the temperature was 14°F. The next day it was 7° warmer. However, the wind chill temperature was 25° colder than the actual temperature. Victor says the windchill temperature is -18°F. Is he correct? Explain your reasoning.

The actual temperature was 14° + 7° =21°.
The windchill temperature was 21° - 25° = -4°.
Victor says the windchill temperature is -18°. This is incorrect because the windchill temperate is, in fact, -4°.
