Weight versus length: The accompanying table shows the relationship between the length L, in centimeters, and the weight W, in grams, of the North Sea plaice (a type of flatfish).32
a. Find a formula that models W as a power function of L. (Round the power to one decimal place.)
b. Explain in practical terms what W (50) means, and then calculate that value.
c. If one plaice were twice as long as another, how much heavier than the other should it be?
