The temperature at 9:00 a. m. was 4°C. At 7:00 p. m., the temperature was -12°C. What was the change in temperature (in degrees Celsius)?
�� 8-degree decrease
�� 16-degree decrease
�� 8-degree increase
�� 16-degree increase

16-degree decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the final temperature of -12   and subtract the initial temperature of 4

-12 - 4

-16

The change in temperature is 16 degrees

The minus sign tells us it was a decrease

i think 16 degree decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

sorry if im wrong i tried to help

here you hope this .

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
