Consider the tan regions in the attached figure, such as the region including northern Texas and eastern Colorado. What can you say about temperatures within those tan regions? Choose the correct answer below. Click the icon to view the figure. A. The temperatures in the tan regions were higher than $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ but lower than $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies within the contour region specified as inbetween $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ and $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$. B. The temperatures in the tan regions could have been anything above $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies above the contour region specified as $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$. C. The temperatures in the tan regions were $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies within the contour region specified as $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$. D. The temperatures in the tan regions were $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies directly below the contour region specified as $$ 60^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$. E. The temperature in the tan regions were $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies directly on the contour line for $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$. F. The temperatures in the tan regions were higher than $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ but lower than $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because it lies directly on the contour line separating $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ and $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$.

1. The figure shows contour lines drawn at specific temperature values. Regions that lie between two contour lines have temperatures that fall between those two values.

2. In the figure, one of the contour lines represents $$ 40^{\circ}	ext{F} $$ and another represents $$ 50^{\circ}	ext{F} $$.

3. The tan regions, including the area covering northern Texas and eastern Colorado, are located within the region bounded by these two contours. This means that the temperature in these tan regions is more than $$ 40^{\circ}	ext{F} $$ but less than $$ 50^{\circ}	ext{F} $$.

4. Therefore, the correct assessment is:

$$ 	extbf{A. The temperatures in the tan regions were higher than } 40^{\circ}	ext{F } 	extbf{ but lower than } 50^{\circ}	ext{F } 	extbf{ because it lies within the contour region specified as in between } 40^{\circ}	ext{F } 	extbf{ and } 50^{\circ}	ext{F.} $$
The temperatures in the tan regions were higher than $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ but lower than $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ because they lie between the $$ 40^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ and $$ 50^{\circ} \mathrm{F} $$ contour lines.
