Answer:

After 4 days, the temperature will be 3/4 Fahrenheit degrees lower than today

Explanation:

Let's calculate the change in temperature after 4 days, this way:

Today's temperature = t in Fahrenheit degrees

Tomorrow's temperature = t - 3/16 Fahrenheit degrees

The day after tomorrow's temperature = t - 2 * 3/16 = t - 3/8 Fahrenheit degrees

Therefore, the temperature after 4 days will be = t - 4 * - 3/16 = t - 3/4 Fahrenheit degrees

After 4 days, the temperature will be 3/4 Fahrenheit degrees lower than today
