Relations


Biologists have found that the chirping rate of crickets is related to temperature, and that the relationship is close to linear. If one species of cricket chirps 113 times per minute at 70F and 173 times per minute at 80F, find a linear equation that models the temperature T as a function of the number N of chirps per minute.
What does the slope of this line represent?
