What is the mean of the temperatures shown?

Temperatures: -42, -31, -40, -40, -44

The mean of the temperatures is calculated by adding all the temperatures together and dividing by the total number of temperatures.

(-42 + -31 + -40 + -40 + -44)/5 = -197/5 = -39.4

Therefore, the mean of the temperatures shown is -39.4.
