Problem

The noon temperatures (in ∘C^{\circ}\text{C}) recorded at a hill station on eight consecutive days were as follows: −4.5,  0.8,  −2.1,  3.6,  −1.0,  2.4,  −3.7,  1.5-4.5,\;0.8,\;-2.1,\;3.6,\;-1.0,\;2.4,\;-3.7,\;1.5 (i) Arrange the temperatures in ascending order. (ii) State the highest and the lowest temperature from the arranged list. (iii) Calculate the range of these temperatures. (iv) During the following week, the temperature on each corresponding day rose by 2.5∘C2.5^{\circ}\text{C}. Without writing out the new list, find the range for that week and give a brief reason for your answer.
