Difference of temperatures

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

Correct result:

d =  10 °C

Solution:

t1=−2 ∘C t2=8 ∘C  d=t2−t1=8−(−2)=10∘Ct_{1}=-2 \ ^\circ \text{C} \ \\ t_{2}=8 \ ^\circ \text{C} \ \\ \ \\ d=t_{2} - t_{1}=8 - (-2)=10 ^\circ \text{C}
