Jake recorded the average temperatures for his hometown over a period of 20 days as shown in the chart. He used the data to determine the mean temperature. In a report, he stated, “The typical temperature in my hometown is about 61°.” How is this statement misleading?

50° 58° 45° 51° 54°
49° 46° 49° 48° 56°
56° 55° 51° 59° 56°
48° 94° 99° 95° 96°
A. There is not enough data to decide what the typical temperature is.
B. The mean of the data is not about 61°.
C. The mean is not misleading. The typical temperature is about 61°.
D. The mean is not a good measure of the typical temperature because a few higher temperatures pull the mean higher than most of the daily temperatures.
