    A. The lowest temperature varied only 4.3 degrees from the mean.

    C. No temperature varied more than 4.3 degrees from the mean.

    E. Temperatures generally increased or decreased by about 4.3 degrees from the mean.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is a measure of variation of the average distance between each data value and mean of a data set. It describes the variability of values with respect to mean of a given data set.

    MAD can be determined by first calculating the mean of the data, find the sum of absolute value of the difference between each datum and the mean. Then divide this sum by the number of datum of the given data.

    With Hui; s record and MAD for his data set, he would be able to describe the varations between the mean and each datum.
