The temperature at the beginning of the day was . The temperature dropped by the end of the day. What was the temperature at the end of the day? Use the number line model to find .

Question:

One day the temperature started at -6°F and dropped 16° by the end of the day. What was the temperature at the end of the day?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the initial temperature with T1

Represent the drop in temperature by D

Required

Determine the new temperature (T2)

The question says that there was a drop of 16 degrees in temperature at the end of the day.

Using a number line, this means that we have to count 16 units to the left of -6.

This can be represented as:

Hence, the temperature at the end of the day is -22 degrees

first one because it can't have a fraction in it
