We have been given that a huge ice glacier in the Himalayas initially covered an area of 45 square kilo-meters. The relationship between A, the area of the glacier in square kilo-meters, and t, the number of years the glacier has been melting, is modeled by the equation
.
To find the time it will take for the area of the glacier to decrease to 15 square kilo-meters, we will equate
and solve for t as:



Now we will switch sides:

Let us take natural log on both sides of equation.

Using natural log property
, we will get:










Therefore, it will take
years for area of the glacier to decrease to 15 square kilo-meters.
7.24-4.002=3.238
It is 3.238 meters longer than higher
7 in a half hrs everyday for 5 days equal 37.5 hrs
For every hour they studied their grade will go up by 9.6 points
