Answer 4

it says temperature recorded that sounds like statistics

Answer 5

It sounds like statistics but it is not..:P If it says like average temperature recorded then it's statistics. Hottest outdoor temp is a single value. It is not statistics. Hottest outdoor temperature over a period of time is statistics. Hope you got the difference. Ask me if it's not clear.
