- Rate of Change for a Linear Function If f is the linear function f=45x, what is the value of dfdx?arrow_forwardTemperature Conversions In everyday experience, the measure of temperature most often used are Fahrenheit F and Celsius C. Recall that the relationship between them is given by F=1.8C+32. Physicists and chemists often use the Kelvin temperature scale. You can get kelvinsK from degrees Celsius by using K=C+273.15. a. Explain in practical terms what K30 means, and then calculate that value. b. Find a formula expressing the temperature C in degrees Celsius as a function of the temperature K in kelvins. c.

What is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit of an object that is 310 kelvins?arrow_forwardMosteller Formula for Body Surface Area: Body surface area is an important piece of medical information because it is a factor in temperature regulation as well as some drug level determinations. The Mosteller formula gives one way of estimating body surface area B in square meters. The formula uses the weight w in kilograms and the height h in centimeters. The relation is B=hw60 In this exercise, we consider people who are 190 centimeters tall. a. Write a formula for B as a function of w. b. Make a graph of B versus w. includes weights up to 100 kilograms. c. Is the graph you made in part b concave up or concave down? d. In this part, we consider the effect of weight gain on men who are 190 centimeters tall. Would the weight gain have a greater effect on surface area for a lighter man or for a heavier man?arrow_forward
