During a science experiment, Daniel noted the starting

temperature of a -4°F. At the end of the experiment, the

change in temperature was -5°F. What was the final

temperature?

Answer: D. - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the following :

Starting temperature = - 4°F

At the end of the experiment, the change in temperature was -5°F

What was the final temperature?

Taking the difference of the starting temperature and the final temperature should give the change in temperature over the course of the experiment.

Δtemperature = (final temperature - initial temperature)

Δtemperature = - 5°F

Initial /starting temperature = - 4°F

Hence,

-5 = final temperature - (-4)

-5 = final temperature + 4

Final temperature = - 5 - 4

Final temperature = - 9
