1. **Stating the problem:**
We want to find the mean temperature from the histogram data with intervals and frequencies:
- $4 \leq t < 6$ with frequency 6
- $6 \leq t < 8$ with frequency 10
- $8 \leq t < 12$ with frequency 4
2. **Formula for mean from grouped data:**
$$\text{Mean} = \frac{\sum (f \times x)}{\sum f}$$
where $f$ is the frequency and $x$ is the midpoint of each interval.
3. **Calculate midpoints of each interval:**
- For $4 \leq t < 6$: midpoint $= \frac{4 + 6}{2} = 5$
- For $6 \leq t < 8$: midpoint $= \frac{6 + 8}{2} = 7$
- For $8 \leq t < 12$: midpoint $= \frac{8 + 12}{2} = 10$
4. **Calculate $f \times x$ for each interval:**
- $6 \times 5 = 30$
- $10 \times 7 = 70$
- $4 \times 10 = 40$
5. **Sum frequencies and weighted midpoints:**
- $\sum f = 6 + 10 + 4 = 20$
- $\sum (f \times x) = 30 + 70 + 40 = 140$
6. **Calculate the mean:**
$$\text{Mean} = \frac{140}{20} = 7$$
**Final answer:** The mean temperature is $7$.
