Wind chill is a combination of temperature and wind speed that expresses how cold the air feels. The larger the wind speed, the more rapidly heat is lost to the air and thus the colder it feels. The table shows the wind chill for selected temperatures and wind speeds. At Wind chill is a combination of temperature and wind speed that expresses how cold the air feels. The larger the wind speed, the more rapidly heat is lost to the air and thus the colder it feels. The table shows the wind chill for selected temperatures and wind speeds. At   and a wind speed of 10 mph, how much change in wind chill can be expected if the wind speed increases by 10 mph?  and a wind speed of 10 mph, how much change in wind chill can be expected if the wind speed increases by 10 mph?

The number n of gas particles in a leak-tight container is approximately described by the equation  The number n of gas particles in a leak-tight container is approximately described by the equation   , where T is the temperature of the gas in kelvins (K), P is the pressure of the gas in atmospheres (atm), and V is the volume of the container in liters (L). For a particular sample, an experimenter finds T = 292.9   \pm   0.01 K, P = 0.68   \pm   0.02 atm, and V = 1.731   \pm   0.005 L. Use a linear approximation to estimate the range of the computed value of n. , where T is the temperature of the gas in kelvins (K), P is the pressure of the gas in atmospheres (atm), and V is the volume of the container in liters (L). For a particular sample, an experimenter finds T = 292.9 ± \pm 0.01 K, P = 0.68 ± \pm 0.02 atm, and V = 1.731 ± \pm 0.005 L. Use a linear approximation to estimate the range of the computed value of n.
