QuestionAt noon, the temperature was $-17^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ and changed to $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$. Was it warmer or colder?

Studdy Solution
Since the temperature went from $-17^{\circ} \mathrm{}$ to $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{}$, it means the temperature increased, not decreased.
The statement "The temperature decreased, because $-17^{\circ} \mathrm{}$ is warmer than $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{}$." is false. The temperature actually increased, because $-17^{\circ} \mathrm{}$ is colder than $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{}$.
