Let give the area in square miles of a town in year , and the area in square kilometers. Find a formula for by scaling the output of . Use the fact that 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometers. You may enter the function verbatim, as you would for any other named function.

= square kilometers Let f(t) give the area in square miles of a town in year t , and g(t) the area in square kilometers. Find a formula for g by scaling the output of f . Use the fact that 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometers. You may enter the function f(t) verbatim, as you would for any other named function. g(t) = square kilometers

Explanation / Answer

Since we have f(t) in square miles and g(t) in square kilometers. And we know that 1 mile = 1.0609 kilometers. Hence 1 square mile = 1.609^2 square kilometers = 2.5889 square kilometers

Hence g(t) = 2.5889*f(t) square kilometers
