At 7 am, the temperature was - 15oF. By 1 pm, the temperature had increased by 18oF. What was the temperature at 1 pm?

Solution: It is given that the temeperature at 7 am is given by 15 deg F

By 1 pm the temperature was increased by 18 deg F

Hence, the increase or the temperature by 1 pm is given by: 15 + 18 = 33

Thus, the temperature at 1 pm is given by 33 deg F

Hence, the solution.
