Use the data given in the three scenarios below to
produce scatter plots, determine the type of model
demonstrated in each example and then answer the
questions based on the graph you created.
Scenario 1 Rescue 911
In a rural community, fire and paramedic crews
must service a large region. They often cover 2
or 3 towns several kilometres apart. These
crews travel, on average, 70 km/h to their
destination. The Chief of Station 42 wants to determine
the time required to reach the patient's home (response
time) for his region. The station is located next to the
local hospital. The Chief knows the distances to each
community that he services, including Deerborn, the
furthest community, at 55 km away. Using the data
below, create a scatter plot showing the relationship
between distance to patient and response time.

Typically, there is an inverse relationship between
demand and price; when price decreases, demand in-
Chicago and Los Angeles is $600, the demand (D)
is 500 passengers per day. When the price is reduced

The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, measured in parts per million, has been increasing as a result of the burning of oil and coal. The buildup of gases and particles traps heat and raises the planet’s temperature. The bar graph in Figure (a) gives the average atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide and the average global temperature for six selected years. The data are displayed as a set of six points in a rectangular coordinate system in Figure (b) [see attached].
Solve, Use the data points (317, 57.04) and (354, 57.64), shown, but not labeled, in Figure (b) [see attached herewith] to obtain a linear function that models average global temperature, f(x), for an atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration of x parts per million. Round m to three decimal places and b to one decimal place. Then use the function to project average global temperature at a concentration of 600 parts per million.
