Q. hat was the diver's elevation after\newlineThe temperatures in five cities were 3F,5F,7F,9F 3^{\circ} \mathrm{F},-5^{\circ} \mathrm{F}, 7^{\circ} \mathrm{F},-9^{\circ} \mathrm{F} , and 13F -13^{\circ} \mathrm{F} . What was the mean temperature of the five cities? (Write your answer as a decimal).
  1. Add Temperatures: To find the mean temperature, add all the temperatures together. 3+(5)+7+(9)+(13)3 + (-5) + 7 + (-9) + (-13)
  2. Perform Addition: Now, do the addition. 35+7913=173 - 5 + 7 - 9 - 13 = -17
  3. Divide by Count: There are 55 temperatures, so divide the sum by 55 to find the mean.\newline17÷5-17 \div 5
  4. Calculate Mean: Calculate the division to get the mean temperature.\newline17÷5=3.4-17 \div 5 = -3.4
