Solution: Wind Chill The formula for wind chill (in degrees Fahrenheit) is given by

Chapter 13, Problem 31

(choose chapter or problem)

The formula for wind chill C (in degrees Fahrenheit) is given by

\(C=35.74+0.6215 T-35.75 v^{0.16}+0.4275 T v^{0.16}\)

where v is the wind speed in miles per hour and T is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. The wind speed is \(23 \pm 3\) miles per hour and the temperature is \(8^{\circ} \pm 1^{\circ}\). Use dC to estimate the maximum possible propagated error and relative error in calculating the wind chill. (Source: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)
