12.8℉ is the correct answer.

9am: The temperature is -10.6°

12pm: The temperature increased by 14.2° (-10.6 + 14.2 = 3.6)

3pm: The temperature increased by 11° (3.6 + 11 = 14.6)

6pm: The temperature decreased by 1.8° (14.6 - 1.8 = 12.8)

So, the correct answer is 12.8°

Please let me know if I am wrong.

Answer:

the temperature at 6pm was 12.8 F

Explanation:

Temperature every three hours...

9am: - 10.6

rose 14.2 so you add this to the starting temperature

9am - Noon: - 10.6 + 14.2 = 3.6

Noon: 3.6

went up 11 so you add this to the temperature at noon

Noon - 3pm: 3.6 + 11 = 14.6

3pm: 14.6

went down 1.8 so you subtract this to the temperature at 3pm

3pm - 6pm: 14.6 - 1.8

6pm: 12.8
