The temperature on Saturday was –2°C. The temperature on Sunday was 8°C. Write down the difference between these two temperatures.

Correct answer:

d =  10 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} t_1=-2^{\circ }\text{C } \\ {t}_2=8^{\circ }\text{C } \\ d=t_2-t_1=8-(-2)=10^{\circ }\text{C} \end{gathered}$$
