Question

100 POINTS FOR THE CORRECT ANSWER

(03.03 MC)

A marine biologist is studying the growth of a particular species of fish. She writes the following equation to show the length of the fish, f(m), in cm, after m months:

f(m) = 3(1.09)m

Part A: When the marine biologist concluded her study, the length of the fish was approximately 5.98 cm. What is a reasonable domain to plot the growth function? (4 points)

Part B: What does the y-intercept of the graph of the function f(m) represent? (2 points)

Part C: What is the average rate of change of the function f(m) from m = 2 to m = 8, and what does it represent? (4 points)

Answer 1

I hope this helped. Look throught the pictures

Explanation:

Answer 2

Part A: 0<x<9

Part B: The y-intercept 3 represents how big the fish was when she first started her study.

Part C: The average rate of change from m=2 to m=8 is 2.09, and it represents the growth of the species of fish.

I don't know about Part C, but I hope this helps!
