	daily temperatures
day 1	- 13.71	16.42
day 2	- 7.44	23.02

what was the temperature change on day 1?
30.13°c
(simplify your answer. type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
what was the temperature change on day 2?
□°c
(simplify your answer. type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall temperature - change formula

Temperature change = Temperature at sunset - Temperature at sunrise

Step2: Calculate temperature change for Day 1

Given temperature at sunrise on Day 1 is $- 13.71^{\circ}C$ and at sunset is $16.42^{\circ}C$.
$16.42-(-13.71)=16.42 + 13.71=30.13^{\circ}C$

Step3: Calculate temperature change for Day 2

Given temperature at sunrise on Day 2 is $-7.44^{\circ}C$ and at sunset is $23.02^{\circ}C$.
$23.02-(-7.44)=23.02 + 7.44 = 30.46^{\circ}C$

Answer:

• For Day 1: $30.13$
• For Day 2: $30.46$
