Correct Answer: Option n
Explanation:
(a) Plot a combined rainfall and temperature graph for station X
(b) Annual temperature range = Month with highest temperature minus month with lowest temperature Annual temperature range = 21°C - 12°C = 9°C
(ii) To derive the mean annual temperature add up all the temperatures for the year and divide by 12 Mean annual temperature
= 21 + 21 + 20 + 17 + 15 + 12 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 18 + 18 + 20

201 = 16.8°C
