A. -20 degrees
B. 10 degrees
C. 20 degrees
D. 30 degrees

Answer 1

The temperature change is 10 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature change can be found by subtracting the initial temperature from the final temperature. In this case, the initial temperature is -15 degrees and the final temperature is -5 degrees. So, the temperature change is -5 - (-15) = 10 degrees. Therefore, the correct answer is B. 10 degrees.
