Answer 1

-8

Explanation:

Given the following :

Temperature at 6:00 a.m = - 8

Before noon, temperature had risen by 6

Temperature at 6:00 p.m = - 10

Which integer represents the tempature change between noon and 6pm?

Temperature before noon :

Temperature at 6:00 a.m + rise in temperature

(-8 + 6) = - 2

If temperature at 6:00 p.m = - 10 ;

Then change in temperature between noon and 6:00 pm will be ;

-10 - (-2)

-10 + 2

= - 8
