The temperature reading that is halfway between −10 degrees and 40 degrees is ___ degrees.

If the temperature was −3 degrees in the morning and 8 degrees in the afternoon, the change in temperature during that time is ____ degrees.
If the temperature has been changing at a rate of −1.5 degrees each hour, and it is currently 5 degrees, the temperature 4 hours ago was ___ degrees.
If the temperature continues to change at this rate of −1.5 per hour, and it is currently 5 degrees, the temperature in 4 hours will be ____ degrees.

Answer 1

30, +11, 11, -1

Explanation:

-10 + 30 = 10, 40 - 30= 10

-3 + 11 = 8

5 + (1.5 x 4) = 11

5 - (1.5 x 4) = -1
