3. The California Emmisons cap was set at 322 millon metric tonsof carbon dioxide equivilent in 2016 and was expected to drop to303 million metric tons of arbon dioxide equivilent in 2024 if weassume that the decreases in the emmisons cap is linearly eachyear, then do the followig thre parts:
a. Determine the linear quation for the amount of emmisions, e(in millions of metric tons), in terms of the number of years after2000, t. Show the steps that you performed to arrive at youranswer. Your final answer should be in the form of a short summarysentence. Place a box around your final answer.
B. Interpret the slope of the equation in the context of theproblem using the idea of the steepnes property.
C. If this trend continues, then when will there beapproximately 290 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emmited.Show, in detail how you arrived at your answer. Write a shortsummary as your final answer.
