1. On six consecutive days, the lowtemperature in a city was -6°C, 3°C, 0°C-1°C, 4°C, and -9°C. What was the meanlow temperature for the six days?



Answer :

The registered temperatures for the six days are:

-6°C, 3°C, 0°C, -1°C, 4°C and -9°C

To find the mean of the low temperatures given, we need to add all of the temperatures and divide the result by the number of days, in this case, 6 days.

The expression to find the mean is as follows:

[tex]\text{Mean}=\frac{(-6)+3+0+(-1)+4+(-9)}{6}[/tex]

First, we simplify the numerator of the expression:

[tex]\text{Mean}=\frac{-6+3+0-1+4-9}{6}[/tex]

And solving the additions and subtractions we get:

[tex]\text{Mean}=\frac{-9}{6}[/tex]

Finally, solving the division:

[tex]\text{Mean}=-1.5[/tex]

The mean is -1.5°C.

Answer: -1.5°C
