- Global temperature increases are benchmarked to the average temperature between 1951 and 1980. In 2010, the global average temperature was 0.72°C above the benchmark. In 2020, it was 1.02°C above.1 1climate.nasa.gov, accessed March 23, 2021. (a) Assuming the difference between the global average temperature and the benchmark is a linear function of time, find a formula for this function. The increase in average global temperature, G, above the benchmark average in the year t is given by G = i i )t eTextbook and Media (b) Use this formula to predict the difference in 2027. °C The formula predicts that in the year 2027, the average global temperature will have increased by over the benchmark.arrow_forwardThe table shows the number of people in North America who use email as a part of their jobs.

- We opened this section with a study showing that late in the semester, procrastinating students reported more symptoms of physical illness than their nonprocrastinating peers.a. At the beginning of the semester, procrastinators reported an average of 0.8 symptoms, increasing at a rate of 0.45 symptoms per week. Write a function that models the average number of symptoms after x weeks.b. At the beginning of the semester, nonprocrastinators reported an average of 2.6 symptoms, increasing at a rate of 0.15 symptoms per week. Write a function that models the average number of symptoms after x weeks.c. By which week in the semester did both groups report the same number of symptoms of physical illness? For that week, how many symptoms were reported by each group?How is this shown in Figure.arrow_forwardPatty’s Parasols recorded the monthly rainfall and their umbrella sales for an entire year.
