5.) The temperature drops from 9 degrees F to -5 degrees. By how much
does the temperature drop?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The temperature dropped 14 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation: x = 14

x + (-5)= 9

The absolute value (distance from zero) of -5 is 5.

The absolute value of 9 is 9.

To find the drop in temperature, add the absolute values of both numbers.
