Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem in the image asks:
"At the beginning of the day, the temperature was -8°F. By noon, the temperature increased by 19°F. What was the temperature at noon?"
To solve this, we need to add the temperature increase to the initial temperature:
Thus, the temperature at noon was 11°F.
Would you like a detailed explanation of how temperature changes work, or do you have any other questions?
Here are five related questions to expand this concept:
- What would the temperature be if it decreased by 19°F instead of increasing?
- How would you represent this problem on a number line?
- If the temperature increased by 25°F instead of 19°F, what would the noon temperature be?
- What is the difference between the starting and final temperatures?
- How would the calculation change if the temperature started at a positive value?
Tip: When adding or subtracting temperatures, treat them like any other integers!
