Question:

Average leaf width, w (in mm), in tropical Australia15 is a function of the average annual rainfall, r (in mm), so w = f(r). We have f'(1500) = 0.0218.
(a) What are the units of the 1500?
(b) What are the units of the 0.0218?
(c) About how much difference in average leaf width would you find in two forests whose average annual rainfalls are near 1500 mm but differ by 200 mm?
