Problem Statement

A sentence of the following type if often heard in Hungarian weather reports: "Last night's minimum temperatures took all values between \minus{}3 degrees and \plus{}5 degrees." Show that it would suffice to say, "Both \minus{}3 degrees and \plus{}5 degrees occurred among last night's minimum temperatures." (Assume that temperature as a two-variable function of place and time is continuous.) A.Csaszar
