Amarine bilogist 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)=4(1.08) ^m
part a: when the marine bilogist concluded her study, the lenght of the fish was approximately 6.86 cm. what is a reasonable domain to plot the growth function?
part b: what does the y-intercept of the graph of the function f(m) represent?
part c: what is the average rate of change of the function f(m) from m=3 to m=7 and what does it represent?
