Question

A country produced 2.7 biltion gal of fuel othanol in 2005. The production of corn-based ethanol has used to model this growth increased exponentally from only 1.0 bilion gal in 1996. The following function can be C) 1.0073(1.1157), where t is the number of years since 1996 Predict the number of gallons that will be produced in 2008 and 2011 n 2008,billion galons will be produced Round to one decimal place as needed.) n 2011, billion galions will be produced Round to one decimal place as needed ) Enter your answer in each of the answer boxes.

Explanation / Answer

C(t) = 1.0073 ( 1.1157)^t

in 2008 plug t = 12

C(t) = 1.0073 ( 1.1157)^12

C(t) = 3.7

in 2008, 3.7 billion gallons will be produced

in 2011 plug t = 15

C(t) = 1.0073 ( 1.1157)^15

in 2011, 5.2 billion gallons will be produced
