ENTOMOLOGY It has been observed that the number of chirps made by a cricket each minute depends on the temperature. Crickets won’t chirp if the temperature is 38°F or less, and observations yield the following data:

Number of chirps (C)

0

5

10

20

60

Temperature T(°F)

38

39

40

42

50

a. Express T as a linear function of C.


b. How many chirps would you expect to hear if the temperature is 75°F? If you hear 37 chirps in a 30-second period of time, what is the approximate temperature?
