city a city b city c
ushuaia, argentina, which has a latitude of 54.8° s
montevideo, uruguay, which has a latitude of 34.9° s
recife, brazil, which has a latitude of 8.0° s

Explanation:

• Low - latitude locations (close to the equator) are warmer. Recife, Brazil (\(8.0^{\circ}S\)) is the lowest - latitude city among the three. Looking at the graph, City A has the highest temperatures throughout the year, so City A is Recife.
• Montevideo, Uruguay (\(34.9^{\circ}S\)) has a moderate latitude. City B has moderate temperatures compared to City A (warmest) and City C (coldest), so City B is Montevideo.
• Ushuaia, Argentina (\(54.8^{\circ}S\)) is the highest - latitude (farthest from the equator) city. City C has the lowest temperatures throughout the year, so City C is Ushuaia.

Answer:

City A: Recife, Brazil; City B: Montevideo, Uruguay; City C: Ushuaia, Argentina
