(a) If L and t are linearly related, express L in terms of t. (b) What is the daily increase in the length of a young whale? (Use 1 month = 30 days. Round your answer to three decimal places.) ________ ft/day (c)If W and t are linearly related, express W in terms of t.
Newborn blue whales are approximately 24 feet long and weigh 3 tons. Young whales are nursed for 7 months, and by the time of weaning they often are 58 feet long and weigh 19 tons. Let L and W denote the length (in feet) and the weight (in tons), respectively, of a whale that is t months of age.
