researchers fit data from over 6000 fetal ultrasounds. they measured the femur length, l, (in millimeters) as a function of the fetus age, t, (in weeks) and found the formula below. calculate the rate of growth, $\\frac{d l}{d t}$, at t = 10, 15, and 25 weeks. does the rate of growth of the fetus increase or decrease as it ages?\n\nl=-37.60 + 3.71t-6.32×10^{-4}t^{3}\n\nwrite a function for $\\frac{d l}{d t}$.\n\n$\\frac{d l}{d t}=3.71 - 0.001896t^{2}$\n\n(use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression.)\n\ncalculate the rate of growth at t = 10 weeks.\n\n$\\frac{d l}{d t}=\\square mm/week$\n\n(round to two decimal places as needed.)
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Substitute ( t = 10 ) into ( \frac{dL}{dt}=3.71 - 0.001896t^{2} )
[ \begin{align*} \frac{dL}{dt}&=3.71-0.001896\times(10)^{2}\ &=3.71 - 0.001896\times100\ &=3.71-0.1896 \end{align*} ]
Step2: Calculate the value
[ \frac{dL}{dt}=3.5204\approx3.52 ]
Answer:
(3.52)
