    B). Miami, Florida, would have warmer temperatures because it is nearer to the equator.

    Explanation:

    As per the details given in the chart, the readers can infer that 'Miami and Florida would have warmer temperatures as it is close to the equator.' The first option is incorrect as lower altitudes correspond to increase in temperature while the third option is wrong as the higher elevation leads to decrease in air pressure and temperature. The last option is incorrect as places near to equator are relatively hotter than the places far from it as the former receives sun's heat from a direct angle. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
