To determine the composite function that represents how many palm trees Carlos can expect to grow over a certain number of days, simply substitute s = 20d into t(s) = 3s + 20:
⇒ t(d) = 3(20d) + 20
⇒ t(d) = 60d + 20
The unit of measurement is <u>how many palm trees</u> Carlos can expect to grow <u>over</u> a certain <u>number of days</u>:
