You would go about it by subtracting mean temperature from the July 22 temperature. That is what "deviation" means. In this cse, you will get a negative number because the temperature was below the summer average on that day.
so would i do this:
82.1 - 86 = -3.9
now that i have the -3.9 would that be the final answer to the question "what is the deviation from the mean that day?"
Yes, in degrees Fahrenheit
