    LESSON 1 Function Models RevisitedOne of the most important and controversial problems in Earth and space science todayis measuring, understanding, and predicting global arming! "here is deep concern thatthe average annual surface temperature on Earth has been increasing over the pastcentury and that this change ill have important conse#uences for industry, agriculture,and personal lifestyles!

    Many scientists believe that the most li$ely variable contributing to the increase inorld temperature is greenhouse gases that reduce radiation of energy from Earth%ssurface into space! "he ne&t graph gives data on change in atmospheric greenhousegases over the past 1,''( years!

    1! Chat can you say about the relation beteen the age and the average height6

    )ge and height are numerical or #uantitative variables, and e can say that heightdepends on age or height is a function of age! 7ecause height depends on age, itshould seem reasonable to thin$ of age as the input variable and height as the outputvariable in the relation! )ccording to the table, the average height of 1>/year/old

    females is 1A2 centimeters! Mathematicians and scientists might use the symbolicshorthand form @91>: D 1A2 to convey this information!

    Ce read @91>: D 1A2 as @ of 1> e#uals 1A2!

    se of notation li$e this indicates a relation in hich one variable is a function of an/other! n this case, height is a function of age!

    "here are many interesting #uestions that you can anser by e&amining data in thetable For e&ample.

    -! @o much does the average height of females increase from birth to ageto6 @o does that increase compare to the increase beteen ages 1? and
