The number of barrels of oil produced from North Dakota oil wells since January 2014 is estimated to be B = 29.05e⁰.⁰²¹⁴ᵗ million barrels, where is in months since January 2014.
Estimate the relative rate of change of oil production in March 2015 using the following values of Δt. Round your answers to three decimal places.
(a) Δt = 1
(b) Δt = 0.1
(c) Δt = 0.01

a)

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

b)

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

c)

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function given:

Where t represent the number of months since January of 2014

Part a

For this case we have the initial time at January 2014 and that represent  the value of t =0.

For march of 2015 the value fo t would be t = 15

We can estimate the corresponding value of B(15) and we got:

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

Part b

For this case we have the initial time at January 2014 and that represent  the value of t =0.

For march of 2015 the value fo t would be t = 15

We can estimate the corresponding value of B(15) and we got:

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

Part c

For this case we have the initial time at January 2014 and that represent  the value of t =0.

For march of 2015 the value fo t would be t = 15

We can estimate the corresponding value of B(15) and we got:

For we have the following value

And the relative change would be given by:

And replacing we got:

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers

it’s supposed to be -4+45=41
