Answer:

7°F

Explanation:

We have the following information from the question;

Morning temperature = -10°F

Increase in temperate = 17°F

Afternoon temperature = the unknown

Since;

Increase in temperature = Afternoon temperature - morning temperature

Then;

Afternoon temperature = increase in temperature + morning temperature

Afternoon temperature = 17°F + (-10°F)

Afternoon temperature= 7°F
