I seem to remember hearing that the temperature 'on' Jupiter has gone up a couple of degrees. Have any temperature rises been recorded on other planets in the solar system?

yes the surface temperature of all planets is on the rise, as the sun continues to come out of a "cool" period.

I'm not sure what your after here.
Martian temperatures are reported on the rise. Increases in trapped CO2 there, and the coincidental occurance of dark patches have supposedly contributed to this. No cars or SUV's to cause it. Jupiter, Triton (one of Neptune's moons) and Pluto also reported registering temperature increases. But reported by whom?
I caution you that you should take into consideration WHO is putting out this info. Sometimes a hidden agenda lurks. It's just like the "staged Moon landing" hoaxsters.
The other day I was lured into believing that the Earth's day is getting longer at an alarming rate by a website. Yes, I understand that the Moon can have a slowing, or "braking" effect on the Earth's rotation through tidal action. That much, I can "buy". Problem came when I noticed that the article was written by the ISAR --International Society for Astrological Research. Get it? Astrological -- not astronomical.
The whole rest of the website was devoted to birth-signs and planets in Zodiacal constellations, and trying to use this to predict the future. Well, there went the credibility of the article, because it was much easier to see that they had written something based on science to seduce me into accepting their predictions as authoritative and reliable.

I am 100% sure that the average temperature of the Earth has been rising over the last 4.5 billion years. How do I know this? Because the Sun has slowly been heating up since it's birth (see below) I have to ask; why is sociology test asking about the average temperature of the Earth? There is something wrong with this picture.

Actually yes - there's a noticible difference in the size of Mars' polar caps today than when Mariner & Viking arrived in the 60's & 70's.

yes, definitely, but not as much as the earth. jupiter also has it's own green house effect but the planet with the most green house effect it venus, the planet is constantly gaining temprature

It is difficult to tell because even here the thermometer of 100 years ago were not that accurate. A possible error of + - 3 deg.F.
