The mean change in forecasted temperature is the average value of the sum of difference in the forecasted temperature values which is -1.285 and lies in between the integers -2 and -1.
The mean change in the forecasted temperature can be calculated thus :
- [Σ(temperature change)] / n
- Where n = number of temperature values
Σ Temperature change = Σ difference
Hence,
Σ difference = (-8 + (-1) + 0 + (-1) + 1 + 1 + (-1)) = - 9
n = 7
The mean change in temperature = (-9 ÷ 7) = - 1.285
Hence,
Upper integer values for the mean change = - 1
Lower integer value for the mean change = - 2
Therefore, mean temperature value of - 1.285 lies in between -2 and -1.
