| The minimum MinTemp is -32oC, so the hypothesis is true. |
| The hottest temperature recorded in Africa is less than 45oC |
| The maximum MaxTemp is 50oC, so the hypothesis is false. |
| The average MaxTemp is hotter than the average MinTemp for countries in Africa. |
| As 27.88oC is bigger than 10.38oC, the hypothesis is true. |
