2. Professor Oak's research has shown that the average energy BE (in kilocalories) required for a Bulbasaur to travel a distance of 1 kilometer (linearly, on flat land) is given by the function BE(m, v) = 2.65m0.66 + 3.5m0.75 w where m is the mass of the Bulbasaur (in grams) and v is its (average) speed (in kilometers per hour). (a) If the average) mass of a mature Bulbasaur is 6.9 kilograms, and its top speed on land is 50 kilometers per hour', compute the energy expenditure of a mature Bulbasaur running at full speed for 1 kilometer. (b) Compute B Em (4000, 20). Explain what this quantity represents. (c) Compute BE,(4000, 20). Explain what this quantity represents.
(d) Suppose Ash's Bulbasaur has a mass of 4 kilograms and a current top speed of 20 kilometers per hour. If Ash's Bulbasaur wants to decrease its energy expenditure in the 1-kilometer Pokéathlon race, should it focus on shedding weight or increasing its top speed? Explain your answer.
