Entomologists have discovered that a linear relationship exists between the # of chirps of crickets of a certain species and the air temperature. When the temperature is 70 degrees F, the crickets chirp aqt the rate of 120 chirps/min, and when the temperature is 90 degrees F, they chirp at a rate of 200 chirps/min. find an equation giving the relationship between the air temperature T and the number of chirps/min N of the crickets. N = Use the formula to determine the rate at which the crickets chirp when the temperature is 105 degrees F ? chirps/min
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
