Chapter P, Problem 19PS
If the population of the world on October 12,2002, was 6.248 billion, when do you think the world population should have reached 7 billion? Calculate the date (to the nearest month) using the information that the world population reached 6 billion on October 12,1999. The world population actually reached 7 billion on October 31,2011. What does this say about your prediction?

could you please show me how to do it
Question 3 Starting at the point (0, −2,0), I walk up the hill z = 4-x² — y².
The projection of my path on the xy plane is the line y = 2x-2.
(a) At what point on my path is my altitude (the z-value) the greatest?
(b) What is the slope m of my path (taking the z-axis to be vertical) when I
am at the point (1, 0, 3)? [Hint: Parametrize my path (take x to
be t).]
