For some painkillers, the size of the dose, D, given depends on the weight of the patient, W. Thus, D = f(W), where D is in milligrams and W is in pounds. (a) Interpret the statements f(140) : = 123 and f'(140) = 5 in terms of this painkiller. f(140) = 123 means f'(140) = 5 means (b) Use the information in the statements in part (a) to estimate f (147). ƒ(147) : = i mg
