At midnight, the temperature was 43.7 degrees above 0, and in the morning, it was 3.6 degrees below 0

Step-by-step explanation:

At midnight, the temperature was 43.7°F. In the morning, the temperature was −3.6°F.

We can say that −3.6 lie on the LHS of a number line while 43.7 lie on RHS of the number line and 0 at the mid.

43.7°F is above 0 and 3.6°F is below 0.

At midnight, the temperature was 43.7 degrees above 0, and in the morning, it was 3.6 degrees below 0 . Hence, the correct option is (d).

you can first factor out the n to get n(1+5). we know that 1+5 is 6, so we just have 6n.
