Final answer:
The weather report saying the temperature is between 40° and 50°, while it is actually 54.4°, is neither accurate nor precise.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks which of the following statements is true if an online weather report says the temperature is between 40° and 50°, but the actual temperature is 54.4°. The correct answer is:
C. The weather report is neither accurate nor precise.
Precision refers to the consistency of repeated measurements or the level of detail in the presentation of the results. In this case, the weather report provides a narrow range (40° to 50°), which suggests precision, but since the reported range does not include the actual temperature of 54.4°, it is not precise. Accuracy describes how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value. The report is also inaccurate because the actual temperature is outside the reported range.
