Approximating Areas
The following table gives approximate values of the average annual atmospheric rate of increase in carbon dioxide $\left(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\right)$ each decade since 1960 , in parts per million (ppm). Estimate the total increase in atmospheric $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ between 1964 and $2013 .$ $$ \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \text { Decade } & \mathrm{Ppm} / \mathrm{y} \\ \hline 1964-1973 & 1.07 \\ \hline 1974-1983 & 1.34 \\ \hline 1984-1993 & 1.40 \\ \hline 1994-2003 & 1.87 \\ \hline 2004-2013 & 2.07 \\ \hline \end{array} $$
