Solve the problem. -The correlation between respiratory rate and body mass in the first three years of life can be expressed by the function logR(w)=1.850.33log(w)\log R(w)=1.85-0.33 \log (w) Where w\mathrm{w} is the body weight (in kg\mathrm{kg} ) and R(w\mathrm{R}(\mathrm{w} ) is the respiratory rate (in breaths per minute). Find R(w)R^{\prime}(w) using implicit differentiation.
