The temperature at sunrise was -3*f. by noon, the temperature climbed 18 degrees. by sundown the temperature was -14*f. how much did the temperature drop between noon and sundown.

32*F

Step-by-step explanation:

* = degrees

Started at -3*F

By noon, the temperature climbed 18* = +18*

By sundown the temperature was -14*F

What we want to know: How much did the temperature drop between noon and sundown?

This is actually really easy!

What was the temperature at noon?        --> 18*F

What was the temperature at sundown? --> -14*F

So what is the difference between 18* and -14*? We can't use an equation, so we will solve manually.

The distance from -14 to 0 is 14 degrees. Keep that in mind.

The distance from 18 to 0 is 18 degrees. Keep that in mind.

So what is 14 + 18? 14 + 18 = 32*.

So, the temperature dropped 32*F between noon and sundown.

I hope this helps! I know this was a little messy, but that is because we couldn't use an equation/expression to solve this.
