At 6 a. m., the Temperature was - 8ºC. By noon, the temperature had risen 6ºC. The temperature at 6p. m. Was-10ºC. Which integer represents the temperature change between noon and 6p. m.? A - 24

B - 12

C - 8

D - 4

First, we can solve - 8+6, which equals - 2 because we are told that between 6 a. m. and noon, the temperature rose 6 degrees. Then, we are told that the temperature is - 10 at 6 p. m., which tells us that there was an 8 degree drop between noon and 6 p. m. So our answer is C since

-2 - 8 = - 10.
