Question 1089610: In testing an experimental diet for hens, it was determined that the average live weight w(in grams) of a hen was statistically a linear faction of the number of days d after the diet began, suppose the average weight of a hen beginning the diet was 40 grams and 20 days later it was 675 grams. determine w as a linear faction of d. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! w=kd+40, since at time 0, the hen weighed 40 gm.
675=k*20+40
20k=635
k=31.75
weight=31.75d+40
