En un informe se dice que la temperatura minima pronosticada es de -24°C y la maxima de -20°C . Si la temperatura minima representa mas frio que la temperatura maxima,¿no deberia figurar al reves?. Expliquen su respuesta.

Check Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

English Translation

In a report it is said that the predicted minimum temperature is -24 ° C and the maximum is -20 ° C. If the minimum temperature represents colder than the maximum temperature, should it not appear on the reverse? Explain your answer.

Solution

No, it shouldn't appear on the reverse. This is because, just as negative numbers work, they decrease, the further we move away from 0.

Celsius temperature scales are calibrated with respect to the freezing point of water. The freezing point of water serves as the reference point and is called the 0°C.

Temperatures higher than the freezing point of water taken on positive values and temperatures lower, take on negative values. The lower the temperature, the bigger the absolute value of the negative value is.

For example, just like In the question provided, -24°C represents a temperature that is 24° lower than the freezing point of water while -20°C represents a temperature that is 20° lower than the freezing point of water. It is evident that -24°C really is a lower temperature than -20°C.

Hope this Helps!!!

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox
