Based on my analysis of all six thermometers in the image, I can now provide the temperature readings for each one.
Here are the solutions:
a) 65 degrees
- The scale ranges from 60 to 80.
- Each small division represents 1 degree.
- The mercury level is exactly halfway between 60 and 70, which is 65 degrees.
b) -2 degrees
- The scale ranges from -10 to 10.
- Each small division represents 1 degree.
- The mercury level is two divisions below 0, which is -2 degrees.
c) 10 degrees
- The scale ranges from 0 to 20.
- Each small division represents 1 degree.
- The mercury level is exactly on the 10 mark.
d) -2 degrees
- The scale ranges from -10 to 10.
- Each small division represents 1 degree.
- The mercury level is two divisions below 0, which is -2 degrees.
e) 28 degrees
- The scale ranges from 25 to 29.
- Each small division represents 0.2 degrees.
- The mercury level is exactly on the 28 mark.
f) 18 degrees
- The scale ranges from 0 to 30.
- Each small division represents 1 degree.
- The mercury level is positioned 8 divisions above 10, which is 18 degrees.
These are the temperatures indicated on each of the thermometers shown in the worksheet.
