Answer:

Mean = 3.25°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean (or average) is given by the formula:

Mean = Sum/Number of Numbers

For first 7 days, the mean was 3, so we can say:

Mean = Sum/Number of Numbers

3 = Sum/7

Sum = 3 * 7 = 21

Then on 8th day, the temperature was 5, so the new sum would be (for 8 numbers):

New Sum = 21 + 5 = 26

Now we calculate the mean for 8 numbers:

Mean = 26/8

Mean = 3.25°C
