Tuesday’s high temperature was 4°C warmer than that of Monday’s. Wednesday’s high temperature
was 6°C cooler than that of Monday’s. If Tuesday’s high temperature was 22°C, what was
Wednesday’s high temperature?

$\textbf{(A)}\ 20 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 24 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 12 \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 32 \qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 16$
1. Let the high temperature on Monday be denoted by \( M \).
2. According to the problem, Tuesday’s high temperature was 4°C warmer than Monday’s. Therefore, we can write:
   \[
   T = M + 4
   \]
3. It is given that Tuesday’s high temperature was 22°C. Thus:
   \[
   T = 22
   \]
4. Substituting \( T = 22 \) into the equation \( T = M + 4 \), we get:
   \[
   22 = M + 4
   \]
5. Solving for \( M \):
   \[
   M = 22 - 4 = 18
   \]
6. Wednesday’s high temperature was 6°C cooler than Monday’s. Therefore, we can write:
   \[
   W = M - 6
   \]
7. Substituting \( M = 18 \) into the equation \( W = M - 6 \), we get:
   \[
   W = 18 - 6 = 12
   \]

The final answer is \(\boxed{12}\)
