A winter storm brought a drop in temperature to several cities. Louisville's temperature dropped 10 degrees. The temperature in Little Rock dropped 15 degrees, and the temperature in Jackson dropped 12 degrees. Which statement correctly compares the changes in the temperatures? Assuming that the temperatures in the three cities were exactly the same before the storm, which city is the warmest after the temperatures drop?A) −15 < −10 < −12; Jackson B) −10 < −12 < −15; Jackson C) −15 < −12 < −10; Louisville D) −12 < −10 < −15; Little Rock

Question
Answer:
C. Louisville. Imagine all of the city's temperatures at a start temperature at 0. So Louisville, which dropped 10 degrees would be -10. When compared to the other city's -10 is warmer than the other city's.
