Answer:
B. What was the highest temperature this month?
Step-by-step explanation:
Rory is recording the <em>high</em><em>est</em><em> temperature</em> for the duration of the day for month's worth of data.
B. is the easiest one to answer, as you simply will have to look for the greatest number within the set, and that will be the answer.
A. is too broad, and does not imply that only the "high temperature" is needed, rather just a leveled temperature within day in that month.
C. is the opposite of what Rory had recorded, and without data, he cannot answer it.
D. is answerable as well, but, again, the only temperature recorded is the high temperature. Temperature can fluctuate depending on the time of the day, and can be in the 50s one hour and the 90s in another.

Answer:
The median of a data set is better when you have a term or terms that are not close to the other terms
Step-by-step explanation:
For example:
Say you have the data set
1, 15, 17, 18, 22, 84
The median of these terms would be 17.5
(it is the exact center of the data group)
17 + 18 = 35
35/2 = 17.5
The mean of these terms would be 26.17
(this number is not close to the center because the numbers 1 and 84
are not close enough to the other terms)
1 + 15 + 17 + 18 + 22 + 84 = 157
157/6 = 26.17
.72
.725 would be less because it has more behind the decimal.
.72 would be more because there are only 2 numbers behind the decimal
