Apparent Temperature A measure of how hot weather feels to an average person is the Apparent Temperature Index. A model for this index is

\(A=0.885 t-22.4 h+1.20 t h-0.544\)

where is the apparent temperature in degrees Celsius, is the air temperature, and is the relative humidity in decimal form. (Source: The UMAP Journal)

(a) Find \(\partial A / \partial t\) and \(\partial A / \partial h\) when \(t=30^{\circ}\) and \(h=0.80\).

(b) Which has a greater effect on air temperature or humidity? Explain.
