The answer is the second option given
Answer:
P(t) = 282.2(1.009)^t
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the attached image.
Hope you can read my handwriting. the image cut off the right side, b = 1.009213324... but question asks to round to nearest thousandth so it's 1.009
For the second part just use the equation to find P when t = -1 and see if P is less than (underpredicts) the number from the question or greater than (overpredicts) the number. I haven't calculated it but I think it will be smaller and thus underpredicts just from looking at the numbers when t = -1
let the time taken to be filled by both pipes be y
1/2 +1/8=1/y
(4+1)/8=1/y
5/8=y
cross multiplying
5y=8
y=8/5
=1.6hrs
Answer:
Identity property
Step-by-step explanation: because the product of any number and one is that number
