Jessica recorded these temperatures in one day: morning temperature: +6°f afternoon temperature: 0°f night temperature: −2°f which statement is correct based on the given measurements? 1.the morning temperature was 6 degrees above the afternoon temperature. 2. the morning temperature was 6 degrees below the night temperature. 3.the night temperature was 2 degrees above the afternoon temperature. 4.the night temperature was 2 degrees below the morning temperature.

1.The morning temperature was 6 degrees above the afternoon temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Morning temperature: +6°F

Afternoon temperature: 0°F

Night temperature: −2°F

∵ 6 > 0 > -2

i.e., Morning temp > Afternoon temp > Night temp

The difference between morning temp and afternoon temperature = 6° - 0° = 6°

Thus, morning temperature was 6 degrees above the afternoon temperature.

The difference between afternoon temp and night temp = 0° - (-2°)

= 2°

Thus, afternoon temperature was 2 degrees above the night temperature.

The difference between morning temp and night temp = 6° - (-2°)

= 8°

Thus, morning temperature was 8 degrees above the night temperature.
