Between noon and 9pm the temperature dropped 10°F. If the temperature was -4°F at 9pm what was the temperature at noon ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6F

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the temperature at noon

dropping means we subtract

The temperature at 9 pm was -4.  That goes on the right hand side of the equals

x-10 = -4

Add 10 to each side

x-10+10 = -4+10

x = 6

The temperature at noon was 6 F
