Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

(a) at what rate was the amount of oil in the well decreasing when there were 1,800,000 barrels remaining?

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

To find A and k

V(0) = A = 3 million

Hence V =

V(6) = 1.5

i.e.

a) Using the above value of k , we have

million per year.

step-by-step explanation:

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
