A cardiac monitor is used to measure the heart rate of a patient after surgery. It compiles the number of heartbeats after t minutes. When the data in the table are graphed, the slope of the tangent line represents the heart rate in beats per minute. t smind 36 38 40 42 44 Heartbeats 2530 2661 2806 2948 3080 The monitor estimates this value by calculating the slope of a secant line. Use the data to estimate the patients heart rate after 42 minutes using the secant line between the points with the given values of t. (a) t 36 and t 42 (b) t 38 and t 42 (c) t 40 and t 42 (d) t 42 and t 44 What are your conclusions?
