The population of an endangered species of rhinos in 2002 was estimated to be 148,003 rhinos. By 2014, the number of rhinos had grown to 211,625. a) Assuming the population grows linearly, find the linear model, y=mx+b, representing the population x years since 2000. m? b?(round m and b to 3 decimal places) b) using the linear model from part (a), estimate the population in 2029.
As a result of urbanization, the temperatures in Paris have increased. In 1891 the average daily minimum and maximum temperatures were 5.8°C and 15.1°C, respectively. Between 1891 and 1968, these average temperatures rose 0.019°C/yr and 0.011°C/yr, respectively. Assuming the increases were linear, find the year when the difference between the minimum and maximum temperatures was 9C, and determine the corresponding average maximum temperature.
The amount of heat H (in joules) required to convert one gram of water into vapor is linearly related to the temperature T (in C) of the atmosphere. At 10C this conversion requires 2480 joules, and each increase in temperature of 15C lowers the amount of heat needed by 40 joules. Express H in terms of T.

The urban heat island phenomenon hasbeen observed in Tokyo. The average temperature was13.5C in 1915, and since then has risen 0.032C per year. Assuming that temperature T (in C) is linearly related to time t (in years) and that T=0 corresponds to 1915, express T in terms of t.
