a.   Arrange the temperatures in order from coldest to warmest temperature.
b.   On a winter day, the low temperature in Anchorage was
$$23$$
degrees below
$$0$$
°C, and the low temperature in Minneapolis was
$$14$$
degrees below
$$0$$
°C. Sophia wrote: “Minneapolis was colder because
$$-14 < -23$$
.” Is Sophia's statement correct? Explain your answer.
c.   The lowest temperature ever recorded on Earth was
$$-89$$
°C in Antarctica. The average temperature on Mars is about
$$-55$$
°C. Which is warmer, the coldest temperature on Earth or the average temperature on Mars? Write an inequality to support your answer.
Problem 3
The elevation of New Orleans, Louisiana, is
$$7$$
feet below sea level. The elevation of Coachella, California, is
$$-72$$
feet. Write an inequality to compare the elevations of the two cities.
