Answer:
A) R = 1900 -24t
B) 1684 billion barrels
C) 79.17 years
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>A)</h3>
Reserves start at 1900 billion barrels and decrease by 24 billion barrels each year. The value for t=0 is 1900; the value for t=1 is 24 less.
R = 1900 -24t
__
<h3>B)</h3>
For t=9, the reserves will be ...
R = 1900 -24(9) = 1900 -216 = 1684 . . . . billion barrels
__
<h3>C)</h3>
The reserve will be 0 when ...
0 = 1900 -24t
24t = 1900 . . . . . add 24t
t ≈ 79.17 . . . . divide by 24
Reserves will be gone in about 79.17 years.
All you need to do is put 45 over 100 to make it 45/100, then simplify down until you get your answer. The answer is 9/20 though. There may be better ways, but that's how I do it.
A linear equation is an equation for a straight line. And yes that is a linear equation. Because<span> it is of the form
h(x) = mx + b
where m=0 and b = 23
h(x) = mx + 23</span>
Answer: Y goes up by non-linear rate since it is being multiplied by 4, anytime something is being multiplied is it no longer linear.
