Part 1: Use a sequence to represent the air loss in a bike tire.
A manufacturer of bicycle tires performs an experiment to determine the daily loss of air when the cap on
a bicycle inner tube is loose. At the end of the experiment, the company concluded that customers can
expect to lose an average of 2.8 psi (pounds per square inch) per day when the bike is not in use.
1. One bike owner fills his tires to 98 psi on the first day of August, but does not realize that the caps are
loose.
I
a) Make a table showing the expected daily psi for the tires if no air is added for a week. (3 points)
b) What type of sequence can be used to represent the expected psi of the tires? Explain. (2 points)
c) Write the formula for the nth term in the sequence. (2 points)

linearly: 8560 bacteria

exponentially: approximately 75233 bacteria

step-by-step explanation:

assuming it is not exponential (we would have some really complicated logarithms), let's say it is linear. then, after 5 hours, it increased by 1200 bacteria, so every hour it increases by 240 bacteria. this means that after 19 hours, we get 19 * 240 + 4000 bacteria or 3800 + 760 + 4000 = 7800 + 760 = 8560 bacteria.

because it says round your answer, i will do this exponentially (with a calculator, of course). first, we need to find how much it multiplies by every hour, by taking the 5th root of 52/40 or 13/10. this is approximately 0.167. we still need to add 1 to this, because we are multiplying by that number, not adding that amount of the number. now, we just calculate 4000 * (1.167)^19. use a calculator to get approximately 75232.6, or 75233.
