Question 412306: The yearly Egyptian production of oil O(t) in millions of barrels, t years after 2000 can be approximated by,
O(t)=-40.4+2159
Using inequality, determine the years for which the production will drop below 1750 million barrels.
This is what I have and know I have set it up wrong.
o(t)=-40.5+2159
O(t)>1750
-40.5t>1750-2159
-40.5t> -409/-40.5
I do not feel good about completing this...think I have it wrong
