The average and median daily temperature for six days in a northern city was 76° F. Daily temperature readings can be changed to a Celsius scale by the formula: C = (F − 32)(5/9); that is, a value of −32 must be added to each data value, and then the results must be multiplied by 5/9.
a. If the six daily temperatures were 73°, 78°, 81°, 74°, 71°, and 79° on the Fahrenheit scale, use MEAN-MEDIAN program to change to the Celsius scale. (Don’t forget to order the data as you enter it, add a –32, and then mul-tiply the values using a decimal format: 5/9 = 0.5556).
b. What is the average temperature of the city in Celsius? _________________ c. What is the median temperature in Celsius?
