<h2>Solution</h2>
It is said that between the time Iko woke up and lunchtime, the temperature rose by 11 degrees. A rise means the temperature increased and you must add 11º.
Then, relative to when Iko woke up the temperature is:
Then, by the time Iko went to bed, the temperature dropped by 14º. A drop means that the change is negative. This means that you must add a negative number, and the additive expression is:
If you want the overall change in temperature you do the operation:
- 11 + (-14) = 11 - 14 = - 3. A net decrease of 3º.
But the answer to this question is the additive expression:
