To find the mean temperature, we add up all the temperatures and divide by the total number of days:
(45 + 52 + 44 + 62 + 55 + 49 + 50) / 7 = 357 / 7 = 51 degrees
Therefore, the mean temperature for the past week was 51 degrees.
To find the median temperature, we first need to arrange the temperatures in increasing order:
44, 45, 49, 50, 52, 55, 62
Since there are 7 temperatures, the median will be the average of the 4th and 5th temperatures:
(50 + 52) / 2 = 51 degrees
Therefore, the median temperature for the past week was 51 degrees.
