Insect Mating Consider an experiment in which equal numbers of male and female insects of a certain species are permitted to intermingle. Assume that

represents the number of matings observed among the insects in an hour, where t is the temperature in degrees Celsius. (Note: The formula is an approximation at best and holds only for specific temperature intervals.)

a. Find the number of matings when the temperature is 15°C.

b. Find the number of matings when the temperature is 25°C.

c. Find the rate of change of the number of matings when the temperature is 15°C.
