Answer

${{3}^{\circ }}\text{F}$

Work Step by Step

Consider the given table. From the table, the temperature at a wind speed of $55\,\text{mph}$ for air temperature ${{5}^{\circ }}\text{F}$is $-{{25}^{\circ }}\text{F}$. And, the temperature at a wind speed of $10\,\text{mph}$for air temperature $-{{5}^{\circ }}\text{F}$is $-{{22}^{\circ }}\text{F}$. Difference between the temperatures is, $\begin{align} & \text{diff}=-22-\left( -25 \right) \\ & =-22+25 \\ & =3 \end{align}$
