The temperature in the afternoon was -4 degrees F, if the temperature one morning in shasta was -12 degrees F, the temperature had risen 8 degrees F.

Explanation:

The given is,

Temperature one morning in shasta was -12 degrees F

By the afternoon, the temperature had risen 8 degrees F

Step:1

Let, X - Temperature at morning

Y- Temperature at afternoon

From given,

X = - 12 Degrees F

Step:2

From given statement,

Temperature had risen 8 degrees F

So, Y = X + 8

= (-12) + 8

Y = -4 degrees F

Result:

Thus the temperature in the afternoon was -4 degrees F, if the temperature on morning in shasta was -12 degrees F, the temperature had risen 8 degrees F.
