Shana, who lives in Canada, and Pearl, who lives in Pennsylvania, were discussing the weather. Shana complained about the cold temperature of Negative 20 degrees Celsius. Pearl, who lives in Pennsylvania, mentioned that her temperature was the opposite of Shana's. Which is the correct way to represent "the opposite of Shana's temperature is equal to Pearl's"? Negative 20 = 20 Negative (negative 20) = negative 20 Negative (20) = negative 20 Negative (negative 20) = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Shana temperature = -20°C

°If Pearls temperature is opposite that of Shana's then Pearls temparature = -(-20) = 20°C

Hence the correct way to represent "the opposite of Shana's temperature is equal to Pearl's

Opposite of shana = -(-20°C)

Pearls temperature = +20°C

Since Opposite of shana = Pearls temperature, hence  -(-20°C) = 20°C

-(-20 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The "opposite" here means we take the negative of -20 C.

So we can write -(-20 which is equal to 20.

So the first option is correct, -(-20 = 20.

hope this helps:)
