Edith Bean · Answer 1

15 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, count from - 34.44 degrees to 0 degrees which is (0 - 34.44) = 34.44 counts

Next, you determine how many more counts you need to reach the 49.44 degrees; that would be 49.44 - 34.44 = 15

Therefore, the Antarticas highest recorded temperature was 15 degrees.
