Suppose that the surface area S of a​ bird's wings in square feet can be modeled by S(w) = 1.27w^2/3​, where w is the weight of the bird in​ pounds, with 1

1 answer

The surface area of a bird's wings can be modeled by the equation S(w) = 1.27w^(2/3), where w is the weight of the bird in pounds.

To find the surface area when the bird weighs 1 pound, we substitute w = 1 into the equation:
S(1) = 1.27(1)^(2/3)
S(1) = 1.27(1)
S(1) = 1.27

Therefore, the surface area of the bird's wings when it weighs 1 pound is 1.27 square feet.
