Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the conversion factor

The problem states that there are approximately \( 39.37 \) inches in \( 1 \) meter. This means \( 1 \) meter \( = 39.37 \) inches.

Step 2: Set up the conversion equation

To find how many meters are in \( 239 \) inches, use the conversion factor as follows: \[ \text{Meters} = \frac{\text{Inches}}{\text{Inches per meter}} = \frac{239}{39.37} \]

Step 3: Perform the calculation

Divide \( 239 \) by \( 39.37 \): \[ \frac{239}{39.37} \approx 6.07 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{6.07}\)

I. (5 points) The growth rate for a fish depends on its weight. For a certain fish population, the growth rate G as a function of its weight w is G(w)=-w^2+4w The weight, w is measured in ounces and G is measured in ounces per year. a. Is the function G(w) concave up or concave down, and why? i. Answer: ii. Reason: b. At what weight is the fish growing the fastest (maximized), and what is the maximum growth rate? Show all your steps and include all units. i. Weight = ii. Growth rate = c. Assuming that the end of life occurs when growth stops (G(w)=0), at what weight will death occur? Show all your steps and include all units. i. Value only: ii. Units only:
