The grаph (curve) belоw mоdels the temperаture T(x), in degrees Fаhrenheit, оf a human body as a function of the number of x hours after death, assuming that the temperature of the surroundings is 40oF. The tangent line at x=8 is graphed below as well.   a) Approximate T'(8) and explain what this value means in context. b) Find a linear approximation of the temperature at 8 hours after death.  c) Use your linear approximation to approximate a body's temperature 8.5 hours after death.    Type your responses here. Show how you got the values on your paper (2 points).
