(a)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 10E

Slope represents the rate of change of temperature in the surface area of the earth.

T-intercept represents the surface temperature of the earth during 1900.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The surface temperature of the earth is a linear function, T=0.02t+8.50 , where T is temperature in ∘C and t represents years.

Observation:

In the linear function T=0.02t+8.50 , the slope is 0.02 and the T-intercept is 8.50.

The slope 0.02 represents the increase in the average surface temperature of the earth with a rate of 0.02°C per year.

The T-intercept 8.50°C represents that the value of the average surface temperature of the earth in the year 1900.

(b)

To determine

To predict: The average global surface temperature in 2100 by using the equation.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 10E

The average surface temperature of the earth in 2100 is predicted to 12.5°C .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The surface temperature of the earth is a linear function, T=0.02t+8.50 , where T is temperature in ∘C and t represents years.

Calculation:

Substitute 200 for t in T=0.02t+8.50 ,

T=0.02(200)+8.50=4+8.50=12.50

The average global surface temperature in 2100 is 12.5°C .
