1. **State the problem:** We have temperatures in different cities and need to find: (a) How much lower was the 6 a.m. temperature in Juneau than in Milwaukee? (b) What was the temperature in Milwaukee at noon after it rose by 14 °F? 2. **Formulas and rules:** - To find how much lower one temperature is than another, subtract the lower temperature from the higher temperature. - To find a new temperature after a rise, add the increase to the original temperature. 3. **Solve (a):** - Temperature in Juneau = $-26$ °F - Temperature in Milwaukee = $-5$ °F - Difference = Milwaukee temperature $-$ Juneau temperature $$-5 - (-26) = -5 + 26 = 21$$ So, Juneau was 21 °F lower than Milwaukee. 4. **Solve (b):** - Original Milwaukee temperature = $-5$ °F - Temperature rise = $14$ °F - New temperature = Original temperature $+$ rise $$-5 + 14 = 9$$ So, the temperature in Milwaukee at noon was 9 °F. **Final answers:** (a) 21 °F lower (b) 9 °F
